Katzew considers how casta painting developed art historically, why race became the subject of a pictorial genre that spanned an entire century, who commissioned and collected the works, and what meanings the works held for contemporary audiences. The book sheds new light on racial dynamics of eighteenth-century Mexico and on the ways the colonial elite attempted to order an increasingly confusing society. 000456549 5208_ $$aWhile casta paintings can be placed within contemporary European concepts of the exotic and the impetus to classify, Katzew demonstrates that the genre also reveals aspects of the construction of identity and self-image unique to the colonial world."--BOOK JACKET. 000456549 650_0 $$aCasta painting. 000456549 650_0 $$aRacially mixed people in art. 000456549 650_0 $$aMiscegenation in art. 000456549 651_0 $$aMexico$$xSocial life and customs$$y18th century. 000456549 85200 $$bgen$$hND1312.M44$$iK37$$i2004 000456549 85641 $$3Table of contents$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip047/2003017365.html 000456549 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:456549$$pGLOBAL_SET 000456549 980__ $$aBIB 000456549 980__ $$aBOOK
