SAN PASQUAL WOODEN RETABLO FOR COOKS WITH THREE RISTRAS

San Pasqual was a simple Franciscan monk who was a cook in the monastery, and his kitchen duties were miraculously taken care of because his devotion was so great. It is also said that as he fed the poor his baskets were miraculously refilled. This retablo handmade by New Mexican artist Lynn Garlick features San Pasqual and three red chile ristras hanging from the adobe home. “I joyfully celebrate the food I am given. May it deeply nourish everyone I feed.” This large retablo is 5 1/2″ x 11″.
