“School of Honor” – Oaxacan Fish Painting

Vivid, symbolic, and rich in cultural narrative, School of Honor is a large-scale painting by master artisans Jacobo & María Ángeles. Titled Los Pescados: Hombres y Mujeres de Respeto (“The Fish: Men and Women of Respect”), this striking piece depicts a school of anthropomorphic fish in intricate Zapotec-inspired patterns. Measuring over 5 feet in height and 6 feet in width, this work blends folk mythology with contemporary storytelling, turning the canvas into a portal of identity and tradition. With vibrant colors and finely detailed linework, the piece is as visually powerful as it is meaningful — ideal for collectors seeking authentic voices in Latin American contemporary art.
