IGLESIA DE LA COMPANIA, QUITO, ECUADOR

IGLESIA DE LA COMPANIA, QUITO, ECUADOR

IGLESIA DE LA COMPANIA, QUITO, ECUADORThe Church of the Society of Jesus (Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús), known colloquially as la Compañía, is a Jesuit church in Quito, Ecuador.

La Compañía is among the best-known churches in Quito because of its large central nave, which is ornately and comprehensively decorated with gold leaf, gilded plaster and wood carvings. Inspired by two Roman Jesuit churches — the Chiesa del Gesù (1580) and the Chiesa di Sant’Ignazio di Loyola (1650) — la Compañía is one of the most significant works of Spanish Baroque architecture in South America.
