ResumoThe painter Bartolomé de Cárdenas, known also as Bermejo, has been generally acknowledged as the outstanding fifteenth-century artist in the Crown of Aragon. His total mastery of oil technique in the Flemish manner, his use of it in what has been characterized as an “Hispano-Flemish” style, and the impact of this style in the various regions of Spain's eastern kingdom have been the subject of several monographic studies.1 Recently, with the discovery of new documentation, Bermejo's earliest period of activity in Valencia has been clarified. One work, the Saint Michael, has been securely dated (1468), and several others, including four panels of Christ's Passion (Barcelona, Museum of Catalan Art and Amatller Collection), the Death of the Virgin (Berlin-Dahlem, Staatliche Gemäldegalerie) and possibly the extraordinary Virgin of Montserrat Triptych (Acqui Terme, Cathedral), painted in collaboration with Rodrigo de Osona, can be placed at this time.2
