Doña María de Perea：ヴィクトリア&アルバート博物館で展示中

This effigy of Doña María de Perea (d. 1499) is a pendant to that of her husband, Don García de Osorio (d. after 1502). Both effigies were originally placed in the church of S. Pedro at Ocaña near Toledo in Spain, but they were removed when the church was declared structurally unsound in 1906. Doña María holds a rosary, an indication of her piety.

The church of S. Pedro was closely associated with the military Order of Santiago, which owned Ocaña.

Doña María's simple dress, reminiscent of a nun, also implies her lack of ostentation and her religious devotion. Although the author of the tomb is unknown, he is likely to have been a sculptor active in Toledo, and the skill with which the dress and portraits are rendered on both this effigy and that of don García Osorio (doña María Perea's husband) suggests an experienced Castilian sculptor perhaps influenced by Netherlandish prototypes, in the tradition of Gil de Siloe.
