Latin American painting

Latin American art is the combination of artistic expressions typical of South America, Central America, the Caribbean, and Mexico, as well as Latin Americans living in other regions. It begins properly with the arrival in America of the Latin peoples from Europe (Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French). Although prior to the arrival of the Latinos there was extensive artistic development on the part of the different indigenous cultures that inhabited the continent before the Spanish invasion in the 16th century, and these would influence regional artistic developments, they cannot be classified as ' Latin Americans' since these peoples did not speak a Latin language, but their own language. The art of these towns is classified, rather, as pre-Columbian.
