Sebastián de Benavente and the Franciscan Order

Abstract
Sebastián de Benavente, altarpieces´ architect, worked continually for Franciscans, at least between the years 1653 and 1667. He made fundamental works of the order for convents in Madrid, Alcalá de Henares (San Diego chapel), Toledo and Valladolid. We have discovered the Puebla de Montalbán altarpiece, which it was thought as missing, and we contribute the contract for the altarpiece of Santa Clara in Madrid, which is useful to the reconstruction of the original aspect. Also we examine the works that he made and adscribe some of them as those in Santa María de la Cruz in Cubas de la Sagra.Downloads
