Also really stand out as effigies representing the Virgin of Candelaria (patron saint of the Canary Islands) and the Virgin of the Pine.[2] In the Royal Convent of Our Lady of Candelaria site in the town of Candelaria in Tenerife (next to the Basilica of Candelaria), include images representing St. Dominic, St. Catherine of Siena and St. Peter of Verona taken by him. José Rodríguez de la Oliva also made a portrait "Post mortem" of The Servant of God, Sor Mary of Jesus de León y Delgado.[2] It is also known that he made a portrait in life of the corsair Amaro Pargo, although this work is missing today.[3]
