Abstract
While his name is a glaring omission, the brief missive regarding an Indigenous silversmith, datedMarch 9, 1566, and held at theArchivoGeneral de Indias in Seville, is surprisingly rich in detail (fig. 1). It was sent by the first archbishop of Lima, Jerónimo de Loayza, to King Philip II of Spain, in order to discuss a silversmith who had lived in the archbishop’s home since 1552, at least. The letter suggests that the silversmith traveled from New Spain with Antonio deMendoza himself whenMendoza was summoned to Peru as viceroy in 1550. It even describes three pieces made by the silversmith.
虽然遗漏了他的名字,但这封日期为1566年3月9日、保存在塞维利亚印第安人档案馆的关于一名土著银匠的简短信件却出人意料地详细(图1)。这封信是利马的第一任大主教Jerónimo de Loayza寄给西班牙国王菲利普二世的,目的是讨论至少从1552年起就住在大主教家里的一名银匠。信中提到,1550年门多萨被任命为秘鲁总督时,这位银匠和安东尼奥·德门多萨一起从新西班牙来到秘鲁。它甚至描述了银匠制作的三件作品。
