Rubera painted the Immaculate Conception as part of a retablo of the family tomb of the former viceroy of Naples in Salamanca. The Count of Monterrey chose this subject because, on behalf of Philips IV, he had struggled for a long time to gain acceptance of the dogma of the immaculate conception and finally won his plea with Pope Gregorius XV. Mary is therefore not dressed in the traditional red cloak, but in a virginal white undergarment and a blue cloak. For Rubera this is an exceptionally light and colourful painting, probably also because his patron preferred classical Roman baroque paintings.
