Abstract
According to the artistic literature of the 18th/19th centuries, the "Madonna of the Rosary” picture that was located originally in the Carmen convent of Seville was realized by Murillo. After be exposing the canvas in the years 1913/14 in London in support of National Gallery, in an exhibition of Spanish painting, the work moved away little by little from the scope of the experts of Art. When the picture went on two decades later to a private american collection, the Art historians did not know any more about it. In the modern catalogues of Murillo this picture is ignored, or gets confused with the one that is in the Pitti Palace (Florence), which is almost identical. In this article there is contributed more ancient bibliographic data and technical recent information that make reason that the picture in question was made really by Murillo, and even before that the "Florentine" version of the same theme.
