Summary note

"In this context it is convenient to include Mount Carmel, as a symbol of the virtues and avatars as one of the most charismatic religious orders that the Catholic world has supported. And, speaking more specifically, the idea of a Mexican Mount Carmel, outlined in the chronicle of the religious fray Agustín de la Madre de Dios (17th century) and years later painted in an allegory (1723) which is currently preserved in the Museo del Carmen de San Angel (Mexico City)" (Our translation) -Verso Cover.
