A LOOKBACK AT #ProjectKisame DAUIS did not have substantial - TopicsExpress



          

A LOOKBACK AT #ProjectKisame DAUIS did not have substantial written records about the ceiling paintings of Raymundo Francia and Canuto Avila, but I was able to unearth a very precious heck of a gem inside the convent while I was doing archival research (I bet no one in the town knows about this). The Libro de Recivo y Gasto Año 1723 no longer has the books pages on paper; what only remains is the book cover made of animal skin, albeit eaten away by termites and cockroaches. Underneath the cover are very fanciful ink drawings depicting Spanish soldiers and other figures, plus some Spanish text scattered all over. These might have been doodled by the escribientes (scribes) who have too much time in their hands. :-)
