Cristóbal de Villalpando was a Baroque Criollo artist from New Spain, arts administrator and captain of the guard. He painted prolifically and produced many Baroque works now displayed in several Mexican cathedrals, including the cathedrals in Querétaro, Puebla and Mexico City, as well as a depiction of the Zócalo in Mexico City, showing the damage of the 1692 riot to the viceregal palace three years earlier.
