Vincente Albán (1725 in Quito, Ecuador - Unknown ) was an Ecuadorian painter, member of the Quiteña School, noted for his idealized paintings of indigenous (Yumbo people) and Latin American-born people in their native outfits.[1][2] These paintings display a variety of social classes and information on the clothing of the time.[3] Exploring Latin American identity, his work was commissioned by José Celestino Mutis, who wanted to bring local flora into the mind of the country.[1][4][5] The paintings were created via an oil on canvas technique.[4] Paintings of this era such as this were often used as a method of showing American territory and the resources it provides. People shown in Albáns work were shown wearing gold and silver to demonstrate the continents wealth.[6]

What can I do to resolve the issue?
If you hold the copyright to this text, you can license it in a manner that allows its use on Wikipedia.
To confirm your permission, you can either display a notice to this effect at the site of original publication or send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org or a postal letter to the Wikimedia Foundation. These messages must explicitly permit use under CC BY-SA and the GFDL. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
Note that articles on Wikipedia must be written from a neutral point of view and must be verifiable in published third-party sources; consider whether, copyright issues aside, your text is appropriate for inclusion in Wikipedia.
Otherwise, you may rewrite this page without copyright-infringing material. Your rewrite should be placed on this page, where it will be available for an administrator or clerk to review it at the end of the listing period. Follow this link to create the temporary subpage. Please mention the rewrite upon completion on this article's discussion page.
Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.)
For license compliance, any content used from the original article must be properly attributed; if you use content from the original, please leave a note at the top of your rewrite saying as much. You may duplicate non-infringing text that you had contributed yourself.
It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Wikipedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.
Add the following template to the talk page of the contributor of the material: {{subst:Nothanks-web|pg=Vicente Albán|url=Presumptive deletion over copyright concerns, please see: Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/Vvven}} ~~~~
Place {{copyvio/bottom}} at the end of the portion you want to blank. If nominating the entire page, please place this template at the top of the page, set the "fullpage" parameter to "yes", and place {{copyvio/bottom}} at the very end of the article.
