Abstract
The cornerstone of the biography of the Palencian painter Pedro Berruguete is a document cited by the erudite Luigi Pungileoni (1822) in which a certain «Petrus Hispanus», painter, was in Urbino. Never transcribed or found again, this notice bears the greater part of the weight of the supposed Italian formation of one of the leading figures of Spanish Renaissance painting. Now, the discovery of this document, the transcription of its contents and the incorporation of new documents likewise previously unpublished, allow for the discernment of significant features of the until today unknown «Petrus Hispanus», as well as the reconsideration of the historiographie tradition which has maintained without question the crossed identification between these two artists.
