Circle of BARTOLOMÉ ESTEBAN MURILLO (Seville, 1617 - Cadiz, 1682). "Saint Francisco de Paula". Oil on canvas. It preserves the original canvas. It has slight flaws and losses in the pictorial surface. Measurements: 118 x 88 cm; 146 x 116 cm (frame). The characterization of the protagonist of this work represented as an old man with a gray beard wearing a habit, leaning on a staff, indicates that it is the representation of St. Francis of Paola. Both the model of the saint and the background in which it is inscribed indicate that the author of this work is based on the model created by Murillo (P000991), currently in the collection of the Prado Museum in Madrid. Saint Francis of Paola (1416-1507) was an Italian hermit, founder of the Order of the Minims. At a very young age he began his life as a hermit on the outskirts of his native town, Paula. Little by little he acquired fame for his prodigies, and around 1450 there was already a group of followers around his figure. His community grew, and in 1470 the Congregation of Hermits (the future Order of Minims) received diocesan approval from the Archbishop of Consenza. Four years later, Pope Sixtus IV granted them pontifical approval. In 1483 Francis of Paola went to France by order of the pope and at the request of King Louis XI. There he developed some diplomatic work in favor of the Holy See, at the same time that he tried to obtain the approval of a Rule for his congregation, which he finally obtained in 1493. Until his death, Francis of Paola would count on the support and protection of the French monarchs, and a few years after his death, processes for his canonization would begin in Calabria, Tourse and Amiens, in which numerous witnesses of his life and miracles testified. He was finally beatified in 1513 and canonized in 1519. It presents slight flaws and losses in the pictorial surface.

FRANCISCO DE PAULA ESCRIBANO LIÑÁN, (Seville, 1820 - 1900). "Saint Ignatius", 1847. Oil on canvas. It retains its period frame. Signed and dated in the lower right area. Measurements: 97,5 x 72 cm; 114 x 87 cm (frame). Francisco Escribano was a Spanish painter active in the second half of the 19th century, specialising in religious themes in the style of the 17th century. He was also a notable painter of historical subjects. Although few signed works by this artist are known, we know that he frequently made copies of Spanish Baroque masters, mainly Murillo. Francisco Escribano is currently represented in the Museo Carmen Thyssen in Malaga and the Museo de Bellas Artes in Seville, as well as in various important private collections, including the Cajasol Collection.
