Image of Quintana del Marco, not of the place itself.

Taken from the villa of Los Villares, the bust was set into the bellcote of one of the village's two churches. It was stolen in the first fortnight of February 2013 and the Guardia Civil managed to recover it in Seville on 29 July of that year.
