Abstract

To find the sources of the pagan fables represented In the reredos we have to search thought classic and mythological literature as well as Castilian and Italian literature of the Renaissance. The most difficult themes to identify are solved through the mythological quotations in La Celestina. The didactic and moral value of the text, its readers and the cultural environment reigning between the end of the fifteenth and the beginning of the sixteenth century lead us to suggest, together with the stylistic qualities of the reredos, the name of the patron and the author.
