- Abstract
The Brazilian XVIII century devotional imaginary and early XIX century was part of the desire of a visual realism and was significant element to the fundamentals of Baroque culture and mentality. This study aims to focus the relationship between the sculptures of Christs of the Passion of the Third Order of Ours Lady of Carmel of Ouro Preto (MG), with a view to the history of the Order, the constitution of her temple and, especially, the construction of its altarpieces located on the Ship and Consistory of that Church. The methodology applied is based on a bibliographic survey in the areas of history, art and iconography, embracing a documentary research and investigation in loco with photographic record. Thus it was that the altarpieces were made to those images, and those were sacred objects of devotion, having as premise the expressive participation of that sculptural ensemble in the festive and religious traditions of that third order Carmelite.
