Comments: This is the main entrance to the contemporary Museo de Arte Colonial (Colonial Art Museum). The building was created in 1676-1681 to house the Universidad de San Carlos Borromeo. The style is clearly that of colonial Spanish baroque architecture: square angles, profuse decoration, ornate column capitals. In the beginning only pure-blooded (?) Spaniards could study in this university, and they studied a wide variety of subjects including law and the Kakchikel Mayan language. (Starting in the next image, we shall take a closer look at some architectural features of this gem of colonial Latin American humanities.)
