Funeral of Saint Rose is a 1918 oil by Teófilo Castillo, held at Lima Art Museum.
This painting shows a crowded scene with people in old-fashioned clothes. They're gathered around a big, ornate carriage with a body inside. The people are dressed in different colors, and some are holding things like flags or sticks. In the background, there's a big building with lots of windows and balconies. It looks like a special event is happening. The painting is very detailed, with lots of things to look at. If you like this kind of art, you might want to check out more work by Teófilo Castillo.
