Wright commissioned Martinez to make wooden sculptures and stained windows among other pieces during his time there. Martinez later on in his life would remember with much appreciation his lessons and discussions at Taliesin describing them like the old masters of the renaissance and their disciples. Wright was quoted: Young Columbian Santiago Martinez argues a bit much about the stroke of this project nevertheless; Taliesin needs more like him, to make the debates stand the transient of the facts. In 1939 one of his mates at Taliesin Mr. Charles Morgan spend some time in Bogot� while making plans to bring some of Wright�s ideas in to the Bogot�s landscape; unfortunately they were unable to start due to local political upheaval and latter due to the early death of Master Martinez.

Soon the Master called for a symposium at the municipal theater to talk about his find; the event was attended by well known Colombian experts like: Enrique Uribe White, Antonio Bergmann, Domingo Otero and Ines Acevedo Biester. Martinez explained the provenance and the scientific work of the piece making it irrefutable that this was indeed a Madonna by Raphael; brought to Colombia by Caballero G�ngora.
