In the context of Oaxaca en la historia y en el mito, explain the Manuel Fernández Fiallo, Philanthropy and Cochineal of the Colonial Panel.
In the top right corner of the image above, Manuel Fernández Fiallo de Boralla (1631-1708) is portrayed wearing clothes evoking the color of nopal leaves and some green nopal leaves are depicted below hom.  García Bustos depicts the religious Fiallo drafting a church-like structure. Don Fiallo was a main benefactor for the construction of the following Oaxacan churches San Agustín, La Merced, San Francisco and Santa María del Marquesado. A small brown dog, perhaps an Xoxo or Xoloitzcuintle, near the left elbow of Don Fiallo evokes symbolism of the Dominican order, the first to send friars to Oaxaca.In the middle of the image, a peasant woman with a container on her back, is picking insects from nopal cactus to be used in producing bright red cochineal dye. As well, at the bottom of the image, a young woman holds cloth that has been colored by dye made from Cochineal.This red dye made some Oaxacans rich, including the philanthropist, Manuel Fernández Fiallo. The last testament of Manuel Fernández Fiallo lists 20 churches, convents, schools and orphanages as well as individuals such as his enslaved servant whom he freed and granted money.
