The Virgin with Child and Little (Infant) Saint John [the Baptist], 1505, in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, United States
Fernando (or Hernando) Yáñez de la Almedina, born in Almedina, Spain in c. 1475 and died in Valencia, Kingdom of Spain in 1536, was a Spanish painter. He was one of the most important early Renaissance painters in Spain. Of supposed morisco origin, he travelled to Italy to study fine art, and in the process became familiar with the work of Leonardo da Vinci.[1][2] After returning to Spain, he collaborated with Hernando de los Llanos on many works.[3]
