      Luis Berrueco (Puebla, México, ppios. del s.XVIII) San Juan Nepomuceno. Óleo sobre cobre. Firmado. Representa al santo joven con barba vistiendo el sobrepelliz y la muceta con el cricifijo. Fue martirizado por el rey Wenceslao por haberse negado a revelar el secreto de confesión de la reina. Un nimbo de cinco estrellas sobre su cabeza recuerda el misterioso fulgor que brillaba sobre su cadáver cuando flotaba sobre el río Moldava donde fue arrojado permitiendo el encuentro de su cadáver. Le rodean unos ángeles que portan atributos del santo como la corona del martirio, el bonete, unas llaves mientras otro posa un dedo sobre sus labios aludiendo al secreto de confesión guardado por el santo. Una cartela muestra la leyenda: "San Juan Nepomuceno Especial abogado del Sigilo de la Confesión". Luis Berrueco fue autor de destacadas pinturas de temática religiosa y de castas. Formado dentro de la corriente pictórica decorativista de la primera mitad del siglo XVIII, su actividad artística podría situarse entre los años 1717 y 1750. Aprendió el oficio en el taller de Juan Correa, se conservan obras suyas en la catedral de la capital mexicana. 36,5 x 32 cm.
