69.2 Altisidora’s mock death and resurrection
2 - Andrew, Best & Leloir's monogram (formed by "A", "B" and "L") can be mistaken with Alexandre-Nicolas Belhatte's ("A" and "B"). In this case, it looks more like the first one.

| Commentary | Detailed representation of Sancho dressed with the clothes for Altisidora's resurrection: a robe of black buckram painted all over with flames of fire and a mitre painted with devils (some kind of bats in the illustration). This mitre, which should be such as those undergoing the sentece of the Holy Office wear (capirote), has been represented more like a bishop mitre. |
