Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2020, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper presents a new sculpture of Saint Didacus of Alcalá preserved in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, at the Church of the Convent of Saint Francis, which is attributed here for the first time to Juan Martínez Montañés. The new work is analyzed in comparison with other works of the same iconography related to the aforementioned artist. In addition, based on various evidences, a chronology around 1590-1591 is proposed, which makes this new sculpture one of the artist's earliest preserved works.
