Thank you for supporting our libraries and have a great weekend. Santo (plural santos) is a generic term, used in New Mexico to denote representations of saints or holy persons. When used to designate any specific character, the word becomes a tiele, as in Santo Domingo. The term is used in this book in reference to any representation of the saints or holy persons. A crucifix, a religious print, or a stature are each referred to as a santo. Two types of santos in art are recognized. The statue, or figure in the round , is a bulto. The painted board, relief panel, or print is a retablo. We have retained the Spanish terminology inasmuch as popular usage throughout the Southwest has gained acceptance for these words in both written and spoken English.
