Church of Saint Peter the Apostle
Renaissance altarpiece from the second third of the 16th century formed by a structure with three bodies and five streets elevated on a predella. Likewise, it is topped by a small attic with the image of God the Father and protected by side guards. While the entire apostolate is represented in the predella, the different bodies repeat the same compositional scheme, the first being dedicated to the head of the church, Saint Peter, the second to the Virgin and the third and last to the Passion of Christ . Accompanying the bulk images of the central street of each of them, the side streets incorporate painted tables with stories about their hagiography and martyrdom and corresponding iconographic cycles.
