Abstract


The altarpiece of Santa Clara of Briviesca (Burgos) is one of the masterworks of the Spanish Renaissance sculpture. Antonio Ponz and Ceán Bermúdez considered that the work belonged to Gaspar Becerra. According to a judicial documentation, this altarpiece had been thought to belong to Pedro López de Gámiz. The finding of a part of the lawsuit that the sculptor had with the Condestable of Castilla, sponsor of the work, and the knowledge of the artistic personality of Diego Guillen and López de Gámiz has permitted us to consider the participation of these artists in the altarpiece and to return to relate the design of the work to Gaspar Becerra; in addition to the participación of Juan de Anchieta and, perhaps, some eculptors who had arrived from Italy with Becerra.
