The period from 1810 to 1910 marked a significant chapter in Latin American art, as nations began to forge their identities through creative expression amid violent struggles for independence. This era saw the emergence of new artistic representations of liberators as heroes, along with a decline in portraits of religious figures. Artists, including self-taught creators, adapted European styles while incorporating elements of popular folk art. The artwork reflected national pride and the changing social structure, highlighting both prominent figures and everyday life, encapsulating a transformative time for culture and identity.
