Lot 34
Tablas are central to Sarhuan culture, and the trade is passed from generation to generation, like the weaving of colorful ponchos. Recently declared Cultural Patrimony of the Nation, tablas are a form of storytelling—each board helps to preserve some aspect of local culture.
Traditionally, tablas were made to illustrate the story of a family when they finished building a new house. The tablas would be delivered as a present by the compadre, or godfather of the family, and placed on the ceiling beams. The tablas are read from bottom to top, starting with the signature of the person making the gift, followed by drawings of the Virgin of the Assumption. The top is crowned by condors, the sun, and the moon, painted with natural pigments extracted from the soil and vegetables.
