Señor de Los Tremblores



Here you can see the Señor de Los Tremblores, as he leaved the church and after his return. You can just make out the silver satellite dish on the lower-right corner of the robe in the second picture. He sits upon 26 kilos of gold and a constellation of precious gems. Some attribute the dark skin of the Christ statue as a reflection of Andean self-image, others to the natural darkening of the wood; I prefer the former.
