“LA ASUNCIÓN” CHAPEL
This
chapel was inaugurated on September 11th of 1938 and it was designed
and built along the one of Llao Llao and the Bariloche´s Cathedral. Inspired by
the Norman style, it combines harmonically stone and wood giving an austere
feel to its only nave.
Inside;
stands out the stained glass and the Vía Crucis whose authors, Enrique Thomas
and Juan Antonio Ballester Peña respectively, were renowned artists of the
time.
On
its altar, is a picture of “Ntra. Sra. de Santa Rosa de Lima”, that was donated
by a family that had a summer house on the town. The painting uses a technique
known as Cuzco School or Style on its late stage. This technique was developed in
the Jesuit Missions of the Alto Peru and it´s characterized by the syncretism
of its images, merging christian and native symbology.
