Murillo did not create but modified the existing iconography of Mary Immaculate, iconography that Francisco Pacheco, Velazquez’s father-in-law had spread in his works, and from which drank the works of Velazquez, Herrera the Elder, Zurbarán.
Murillo broke the previous statism and endowed his Immaculate with a vigorous dynamism and ascensional sense, the movement of the cape is intuitive, and he may have taken the idea of the Immaculate that Ribera painted for the Discalced Augustinian Sisters of Salamanca.
The second Immaculate also has to do with the Franciscans, it is the canvas that is conserved in the Archbishop’s Palace of Seville “The Immaculate and Fray Juan de Quirós”, commissioned by the Brotherhood of the Vera Cruz with headquarters in the convent of San Francisco.

It is called “La Colosal” because of its large proportions, since it was made to be placed on the arch of the main chapel, at a great height and distance from the viewer. With her hands joined, the Virgin looks downwards, accentuating the sensation of depth for those who contemplate her. The desired effect of spatial mobility of baroque character is achieved through two diagonals: the one formed by the moon with the cloud and the angels and the one formed by the flight of the mantle.

La Inmaculada Concepción de los Venerables o La Inmaculada Concepción de Soult (títulos originales La Inmaculada Concepción de los Venerables o La Inmaculada Concepción de Soult) es un óleo del artista español Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. [Fue pintado hacia 1678 y mide 274 cm × 190 cm [1]. Saqueado por el mariscal Jean-de-Dieu Soult en 1813 y llevado a Francia, fue comprado por el Louvre en 1852. Desde 1941 se encuentra en el Museo del Prado de Madrid.
En 1813,[2][3] durante la Guerra de la Independencia, el cuadro fue saqueado por el mariscal Jean-de-Dieu Soult y llevado a Francia. Soult dejó el marco del cuadro, que permanece en el hospital hasta el día de hoy[2]. El cuadro permaneció en posesión de Soult hasta su muerte en 1851; el nombre alternativo del cuadro procede de él[4].
El cuadro se subastó en 1852 y fue adquirido por el Museo del Louvre por 615.300 francos, lo que se considera la mayor suma pagada por un cuadro en aquella época[5]. Se expuso allí hasta 1941, época en la que el arte de Murillo pasó de moda; como resultado, el Régimen de Vichy aceptó devolverlo al español Francisco Franco en un intercambio de obras de arte, junto con la Dama de Elche y varias piezas del Tesoro de Guarrazar. [A cambio, el Museo del Prado español cedió al Louvre el Retrato de Mariana de Austria de Diego Velázquez[5] En 1981, el especialista en restauración del Prado, Antonio Fernández Sevilla, realizó una cuidadosa restauración superficial de La Inmaculada Concepción de los Venerables, como preparación para una exposición dedicada a Murillo. En 2007 se llevó a cabo una restauración más profunda[3].

The Museum of Fine Arts of Seville is an emblematic place for the knowledge of the artistic personality of Murillo, since it preserves one of the most important collections of paintings by the artist.
The Museum of Fine Arts occupies the former Convent of the Merced Calzada of Seville, which was founded by St. Peter Nolasco shortly after the conquest of the city by Ferdinand III. The present building was begun in 1603 by the architect and sculptor Juan de Oviedo, undergoing several remodeling works in the following centuries.
With the disentailment of Mendizábal, the Mercedarian monks were exclaustrated and the convent was destined to house the paintings requisitioned from the religious institutions that had been expropriated. On September 16, 1835 it was founded as the “Museum of Paintings” by Royal Decree.
The Museum of Fine Arts, formerly the Convent of La Merced Calzada, is the tenth of the twenty spaces that make up the Itinerary in the footsteps of Murillo, through which it is possible to take a tour of 17th century Seville following in the footsteps of the artist to the most emblematic places of his career. In them, you will be able to contemplate his works and understand the creative personality of an exceptional artist.
