Abstract
In this article we study of the engravings dedicated to the Immaculate Conception which illustrate books published in New Spain in the 18th and 19th centuries. Their analysis focuses on iconography, and technical and stylistic aspects are also taken in account. These engravings are grouped in three groups, obeying the iconographic type of the Immaculate that is reflected, in the first group they include those with the theme of the Tota Pulchra, in the second they present the definitive type of the same and in the last group we included two engravings with an allegorical-conceptual sense.
