Virgin of the Navigators

March 22, 2019 by Henk Bekker

Virgin of the Navigators

The large altarpiece Virgin of the Navigators painted 1531-36 by Alejo Fernandez is one of few paintings on display in the Real Alcazar. The blond man on the far left is possibly Christopher Columbus (Colon in Spanish) and the man with red cape on the far right Hernan Cortez. Under the virgin’s cloak is one of the earliest depictions of indigenous Americans in European art.
