Juan de la Abadia el Viejo was a Spanish painter active from around 1470 to 1498, working in the Gothic Spanish Flemish style. His known works include Santa Catalina, painted in 1490 for the church of la Magdalena de Huesca and now lost, the Saviour from the hermitage of Broto now held at the Museum of Zaragoza, and the Santo Domingo in Almudevar, after which he was long known as the Master of Almudevar until identified by the art historian Ricardo del Arco. His son, Juan de la Abadia el Joven, worked alongside him after 1490.
