Abstract
A passagem do pintor flamengo Simón Pereyns por Lisboa por volta de 1558 é conhecida pela historiografia iberoamericana desde 1938, após o trabalho seminal de Manuel Toussaint. À luz de nova documentação recenseada, o presente texto procura explicar melhor as circunstâncias da vinda de Pereyns a Portugal, antes de partir para Espanha, de onde rumaria ao México em 1566. Os contactos artísticos mantidos com a comunidade flamenga estabelecida em Lisboa desde os finais do século XV e o convívio próximo com os pintores de corte que se destacavam na arte do retrato são alguns aspectos que iremos analisar para uma melhor compreensão da carreira de Pereyns na Nova Espanha.
The journey of the Flemish painter Simon Pereyns in Lisbon around 1558 is known for Ibero-American historiography since 1938, after the seminal work of Manuel Toussaint. In light of new documents, this text seeks to better explain the circumstances of Pereyns passage to Portugal, before leaving for Spain, from where he will depart to Mexico in 1566. The artistic contacts with the Flemish community established in Lisbon since the late fifteenth century and the close interaction set up with the court painters who excelled in portraiture are some aspects that we will tackle for a better understanding of Pereyns career in New Spain.
