Note: There is a painting by José de Alcíbar which seems to be based on this painting by Ibarra. It is true that the composition of Alcíbar inverts that of Ibarra (and that of its print source). Yet, Alcíbar omits the vegetation on the capitel of the proximal column. And crops the composition from above. Both of these features can be found in the Ibarra painting, but not in his print source.
