| Summary: | The wooden carving of Our Lady of Candelaria, discovered in the municipality of the same name in the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands) during the first half of the fifteenth century, had nearly two hundred letters of the Latin alphabet inscribed on her garments. Unfortunately the original carving is not available for inspection. It disappeared after the storm that took place on the 7th and 8th of November, 1826, in Tenerife. The only way left for us to know which letters were inscribed on the statue is by analysing the artistic work that represented it later on, as well as by being granted access to the either written or printed documentary sources dealing with them. The latter will be our chosen method in this paper. La talla original de Nuestra Señora de Candelaria, descubierta en el municipio del mismo nombre en la isla de Tenerife (islas Canarias) en la primera mitad del siglo XV tenía en torno a doscientas letras latinas inscritas en su indumentaria. Lamentablemente dicha talla desapareció en la gran tormenta ocurrida los días 7 y 8 de noviembre de 1826, por lo que no podemos acceder al conocimiento directo de dichas letras. Solamente el análisis de las representaciones artísticas de la misma y de las fuentes textuales o impresas que las recogieran nos permitirá acceder al conjunto literario de la talla primera, acercamiento este último que recogemos en este artículo. |
