Description: This image depicts an Augustinian friar physically abusing an indigenous man. The friar is dressed in his hooded habit and is standing on the right side of the image. He is illustrated holding a long stick as he uses it to beat the man while also pulling off the cloak that was wrapped around him. The author criticizes Augustinian friars for not fearing God or justice and for not treating the indigenous peoples of Peru with respect.
