This work is a copy of the one known as Virgen de la servilleta, a work painted by Murillo around 1666 and currently preserved in the Museum of Fine Arts in Seville. The image was painted for the altarpiece of the Capuchin Convent in Seville, and owes its name to a nineteenth-century legend according to which one lay brother of the convent realized one day that it was missing a napkin, which Murillo returned with the work. graffiti. However, it is a work on canvas. The original painting measures 67 x 72 cm, and the author of this copy enlarges it vertically, increasing the dark background that surrounds the figures to transform the horizontal, almost square, shape of the original into another vertical one.
Due to its formal and technical characteristics, we can relate this work to Bernardo Germán Llorente, a painter from the Sevillian school who was qualified by Ceán Bermúdez as the painter of the shepherdesses, due to the large number of paintings by the Divina Pastora he made. Few data are known of his life and work, although he generally signed and dated his paintings. His career began around 1700, and it is considered that from 1726 he developed a mature style defined by the correction of the drawing and a careful and precise execution. Later, from 1729, he will assume new influences from France by contacting Jean Ranc and the court that Felipe V will establish in Seville. Thus, his style derived from Murillo evolves towards greater openness, clearly evident in the portraits of His Majesties and Infants of Spain. The kings proposed painter, he rejected this position but his fame did not suffer, since in 1756 he was admitted to the Academia de San Fernando in Madrid. Currently works of Bernardo Germán Llorente are preserved in the Carmen Thyssen Museum in Malaga, the Museum of Fine Arts in Seville, the Louvre in Paris, the Cathedral of Jaén and others.
