In the present article, there are exposed some features from the aesthetic that helped to shape a sacralized society from Spanish colonies in America. It is a didactic type aesthetic whose origins come from the baroque culture of the European Counter-Reformation Catholicism of the 17th century. The intention is to present the development that took part inside the American culture an artistic Hispanic dynamic, that has been used as a political discourse to ease Christianisation and promote the aestheticization of Spanish viceroyalties common living until they become into a new culture which at the present day makes part of the festal and ritual identity of numerous native and half-breed people from the continent and also the Caribbean.
