This 18th-century sandstone relief depicts God the Father surrounded by seraphim and clouds, with a triangle halo symbolizing the Trinity. His hand on his chest represents divine authority and celestial order. The intricate Baroque ornamentation reflects New Spanish theological themes, enhancing the monastery façade with heavenly grandeur and spiritual hierarchy, typical of the period’s artistic expression.
