Summary:

This book examines the transformation of the indigenous allegory of America within visual culture from the 15th century to the 19th century, particularly in the context of Colombia's independence. It traces the evolution of the allegory from a territorial symbol representing America to a republican and libertarian emblem during the political movements of the early 19th century. Through cultural art history, it explores the creation, adaptation, and appropriation of symbolic representations between Europe and America. The author highlights the historical significance of these symbols, their influence on identity formation, and their role in shaping civic ideologies during Colombia's transition from colonial rule to independence. Intended for scholars, historians, and art enthusiasts, the book provides a nuanced analysis of the interplay between political symbolism and cultural identity during a transformative era in American history.
