Abstract

Bemabé de Gaviria is a key figure in the Granada artistic world, since he consolidated the style first established by Pablo de Rojas at the end of the 16th century. The commission for a Nazarene given by the town of Motril (Granada) is unusual, and offers an example of the importance of this artist at the beginning of the 17th century. The work, whose present whereabouts is unfortunately unknown, conforms to the stipulations of the Council of Trent and falls in with the tastes and the ' needs' of the epoch.
