Fray Juan Sánchez Cotán (Orgaz, Toledo, 1560 - Granada, 1627) "Saint Beatrice of Silva" Oil on canvas. Signed. 115 x 77 cm. The painting, as Isabel Mateo notes in her report, “is the recreation of the moment in which she decided to leave the world, a biographical moment, in which she is accompanied by a servant, and in which the painter mixes 15th century with 16th century attire. Also, we are presented with what came to be the most important facet in his artistic career, the still life.” Isabel Mateo compares this Saint Beatrice to the model of the Immaculate Virgin and the Virgin of the Annunciation by Sanchez Cotán at the Museo de Granada, among other paintings. The painting comes with a certificate of authenticity by Isabel Mateo Gómez from 2016.
