Commentary | Reference to captive's tale; after arriving to Vélez Málaga, the captive, Zoraida and the other Christians go into a church, where Zoraida sees images of the Virgin Mary; "así como en ella entró Zoraida, dijo que allí había rostros que se parecían a los de Lela Marién" (41:1). |
Notes | 1 - This illustration, with the Virgin, the Child and Saint John the Baptist, is a copy after Raphael's Madonna di Casa d'Alba (1511, National Gallery of Washington, EEUU).
2 - Raphael's style has been copied quite well, especially for the face of the Madonna. |
