The Flemish altarpiece, dated 1561, from the church of Santa Maria del Puerto in Santoña (Cantabria), bears the inscription Opus Petri Nicolai Morauli [...], along with the artist's address and place of residence: Bruges. The same signature can be recognized on the Mass of Saint Gregory in Houston. In this study, the author attempts to demonstrate that the Bruges painter who realized these works is no other than Pieter Claeissens the Elder (c. 1499/1576). This hypothesis, already formulated by Weale in 1911, was subsequently abandoned in favor of another possible identification (Pieter de Moor). Nevertheless, a correct stylistic dating of the paintings signed by «Moraulus» and examination of the archives of the Bruges Painter's Guild, clearly support Weale's hypothesis.
