Immaculate Virgin in Oval, attributed to Pedro Anastasio Bocanegra (Granada, 1638-1689), 17th century Spanish school
Oil on canvas, with vintage cornucopia-type frame, framed measurements: 100 x 84, canvas measurements: 82 x 62 cm. Pedro Anastasio Bocanegra would become the most active artist in the city of Granada at the end of the 1660s. After a brief stay in Seville, in 1686 he went to the Madrid court under the protection of Don Pedro de Toledo, Marquis of Mancera, who helped him obtain the title of painter to the king ad honorem for his painting Allegory of Justice (Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando, Madrid). Other important works to highlight are the adoration of the Eucharist (convent of Las Góngoras, Madrid), some portraits of members of the Trinitarian order (Palace of Carlos V, Granada), as well as several paintings that represent the Virgin with the Child and different saints, and The Triumph of David, in the Prado Museum.
