(painting title)

Spanish to English Art/Literary
The title of the painting is "Pedro III en el collado de las Panizas" by a Spanish painter, Barbasán Lagueruela. Apart from the fact that the painting's subject is historical, the text doesn't say anything else about it. Does anyone understand the reference to help translate the title, or can anyone suggest a translation?

Pedro III at Las Panizas mountain pass

"Las Panizas" is the proper name of a specific area in Aragón. Pedro III, king of Aragon & Sicily (13th cen.), is not translated. The painter was Mariano Barbasán Lagueruela who worked in the 19th, so this has to be purely imaginative.

collado is a pathway similar to a valley

Collado: depresión suave por donde se puede pasar fácilmente de un lado a otro de una sierra.

It is also a hill or a pass between two mountains...

So, it could be: "Pedro III at the Panizas' Pass"

Also, Paniza = maize or corn... so it may be that he is in a corn field?

Do you have a photograph?
