The author discusses the evolution of the portrayal of Madrid's patron saint, Isidre, from the peasant holy man working his first posthumous miracles in the late 13th century to the canonized saint of the 17th century. On the one hand, hagiographers transformed and completed his life and miracles in order to fit them into the contemporary model of sainthood and, at the same time, meet society's expectations of the saint —especially those of Madrid's oligarchy, who monopolized the cult. On the other hand, because of Lope de Vega's portrayals of Isidre, the saint became very popular among the lower classes in the countryside as well as in the city.
