Virgin of Quito
Herrán Matorras' Virgin of Quito (1976) on El Panecillo is the largest replica of all.This particular Virgin became a popular cult image which is still venerated — via innumerable replicas — throughout the northern Andes. The original 1734 work was conceived and commissioned as a Lady of the Immaculate Conception and is venerated at the altar of the Church and Convent of San Francisco in Quito, Ecuador.
