"The Virgin with a Knight of Montesa" is a notable painting by the Italian-born Spanish Renaissance artist Pablo de San Leocadio, also known as Paolo da Reggio or Pablo de Reggio. Created between 1473 and 1476, this work is an exemplar of the cultural exchange between Italy and Spain during the Renaissance period, showcasing the influence of Italian artistic techniques on Spanish art.

The painting depicts the Virgin Mary, serene and poised, holding the Christ Child, accompanied by a knight from the Order of Montesa, a military order linked to the Crown of Aragon. The knight, identifiable by the emblem on his cloak, is typically shown in a posture of devotion or supplication, illustrating the contemporary practice of patrons or devotees being included in religious artworks to denote piety or as a form of votive offering.

San Leocadio's work is characterized by its delicate use of color and light, reflecting the artist's Italian training and the early Renaissance style. The precise date of the painting and the identity of the knight remain subjects of scholarly research, but the artwork itself is a testament to the artist's skill in blending the iconographic traditions of his adopted country with the innovative techniques of the Italian Renaissance.

"The Virgin with a Knight of Montesa" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, providing insight into the religious and social context of 15th-century Spain. The painting is preserved in a Spanish institution, contributing to the country's rich cultural heritage and serving as a point of interest for both art historians and the general public interested in the cross-cultural artistic developments of the Renaissance era.
