About this work

Description

The waxwork tableau by Sebastián Malagarriga y Codina transcribes a controversial painting by Gisbert Pérez from the Exposición nacional of 1860. This wood-engraving reproduces the painting, claiming to copy the waxwork; possibly for censorship-evasion reasons. The painting shows the execution of three of the leaders of the rebels against the Castilian crown, in the Guerra de las Comunidades de Castilla, 1520-1522: Juan de Padilla, Juan Bravo, and Francisco Maldonado
