notes:
Finished in 1674, the church of San Francisco was one of the few buildings in Lima to withstand the 1746 earthquake. This illustration is the only known one from the colonial period to show the entire edifice. Antonio de Somoza was the Franciscan Commissary General of the Indies and an Inquisition examiner.
