Attributed to ANDRÉS PÉREZ (Seville, 1660- 1727). "Vision of St. Augustine. Oil on canvas. Relined. Inscription on the canvas (back). Measurements: 79 x 56 cm; 92 x 69 cm (frame). The painter shows us the figure of the religious seated in front of his monastic desk at the moment of being interrupted his intellectual work by three angels that carry an ecclesiastical representation, while a fourth cherub brings him the mitre. Both elements symbolize St. Augustine's appointment as bishop. The detail with which the interior has been represented, from the checkered floor to the turned wooden legs and the fluted columns, is characteristic of Andrés Pérez. The variety of qualities and textures stand out: floating fabrics, velvet curtain, bronze cross, etc. There is little information about the biography of the painter Andrés Pérez, son of painter Francisco Pérez de Pineda, of whom he was probably a disciple. According to Cean, despite the Murillo influence of the time, Andres Perez has its own style characteristics, such as a very precise drawing, characters of kind expressiveness, and large scenarios in which reminiscent of architectural environments or landscape perspectives. The two most relevant works known of this painter are kept in the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville, having been attributed to Ortega and Lucas Valdés. His works have a markedly Eucharistic symbolism, perhaps because of the commissions for chapels. Dimensions 79 x 56 cm; 92 x 69 cm (frame).
