It was commissioned byRodrigo de Castro, inquisitor,archbishop of Seville,bishop of Cuenca andbishop of Zamora, making it one of the artist's few private commissions from that time. It is now in the Colegio del Cardenal inMonforte de Lemos.

Its composition and style show the influence ofTitian andMichelangelo which the painter had picked up during his time in Italy. It showsSaint Lawrence as a deacon in a finelybrocadeddalmatic, holding the grill on which he was martyred and looking upwards to a vision of theMadonna and Child on a cloud.
