We will analyze the training of painters in the New Spain, which started with the grade of apprentice, developing very easy tasks such as the cleaning of the tools and the grinding of colors for, later, access readings and theoretical texts and, finally, to have the opportunity to get examined as officials and be employed in a workshop or set up their own.
