Abstract


This article studies a topographical view of Belmonte, a small town in the province of Cuenca, painted by Anton Van den Wyngaerde, a Flemish artist. The analysis of the work allows us to penetrate in some problems that have an effect on the knowledge of his production. In particular it is very important the long campaign of work developed by the painter through the lands of the Kingdom of Aragón in 1563. The view of Belmonte will be just the final point of his trip, that can be only understood in relation with the journey Philip II made through the same lands some months later. The present article ends in a detailed exam of the drawing, contrasting it with the own historical reality of Belmonte as for its general composition and details.
