Acambaro No. 3 / Acámbaro

Described with an illustration in Rojas (1967) as a holy-water stoup in the 18th-century Franciscan convent that replaced the original 16th-century church; Rojas (ibid.) states that this stoup is from the original church/hospital, and suggests a date in the second half of the 16th century. Rojas describes the stoup as having a hemispherical basin raised on a pedestal with round and square segments; the basin has a decorative band resembling the Franciscan rope belt all around, with half roses below, with other floral motifs on the basin and base.
