15th-16th Century Spanish

Painter of religious works. Of unknown origins, his main activity can be traced to the late 15^th century and early 16^th century in the kingdoms of Aragon and Navarre.

With evident Gothic influences from Northern Europe, his first documented work is the main altarpiece of Tudela cathedral, consecrated on 11^th June 1494. After finishing this major work, it appears that Díaz de Oviedo moved to Tarazona, as the altarpiece of its cathedral, dedicated to Saint James the Apostle, is also attributed to him.

Around 1498, he undertook some commissions for the cathedral in Huesca as well as the main altarpiece of the San Lorenzo basilica, some of whose panels, depicting scenes from Lavatorio de Pilatos, Ecce Homo, San Orencio and Santa Paciencia have survived to this day.

In the early years of the 16^th century he returned to Tudela, with a contract to make the main altarpiece for the Santa Ana church in Buñuel. On 12^th March 1509 he carried out his last known altarpiece, at the Nuestra Señora del Romero basilica, commissioned by Marco Miguel Garcés de Cascante, canon of the Tarazona cathedral and vicar of the town of Cascante.

Nothing further is known of his whereabouts, leading to the belief that Pedro Díaz de Oviedo may have died in Tudela around 1511 or 1512.
