Abstract

This article offers an interpretation of the possible meanings present in the ancient altar-piece or reredos of Saint James the Apostle in Algemesí [province of Valencia], painted by Francisco Ribalta between 1603 and 1610. It studies the different iconographical types that formed the altar-piece and their underlying literary tradition by means of an interpretation of the ideological discourse manifested in the diverse narrative and conceptual images, as examples of conversion, preaching and virtue as a path to perfection in Christian life.
