Abstract


Very few representations of the Anthropomorphic Trinity exist. This commentary focuses on two 15th Century examples: a wood carving in the collegiate church of Valpuesta (Burgos, the oldest episcopal see in Castile), and a painting by Miguel Ximénez in the Prado Museum. The análisis focuses on the graphic source used as a model by both sculptor and painter.
