This painting was commissioned for the chapel of the old Town Hall in Bilbao in 1786. It represents the scene when in Zaragoza the Virgin appeared to St James the Greater in a vision, seated on top of a pillar of jasper, and commanded him to build a chapel on the spot, a story that served to explain the foundation of the church of Nuestra Senora del Pilar.
