One of Murillo´s most outstanding disciples, Simón Gutiérrez worked in Seville for sixty years. This painting is a version of the "Virgin of the napkin" by his Master, Murillo. In his report on this painting, Enrique Valdivieso explains that: "Juan Simón Gutiérrez knew exactly how to transpose the sense that Murillo gave to his original onto this canvas, expressing a beautiful scene from everyday life in the home at Nazareth. Mary wraps the Child in cloths, with a kind and pleasant attitude, while on her face there is a suggestion of melancholy self-absorption at the presentiment of the future passion and death of her Child.” The painting comes with Enrique Valdivieso González´s report.
