Abstract

During the second half of the 18th Century, in the city of Puebla de los Ángeles, José de Nava, one of New Spain’s most important engravers of the entire century, and whose work has not been systematically studied –as has been the case with other graphic artists of the viceregal period–,  developed his artistic activity. This article analyzes some of the religious prints that he made, in the late 18th Century, for the two main typography workshops of Puebla: the one owned by the Palafoxian Seminary and the one by Pedro de la Rosa.
