Luisa Ignacia Roldán Villavicencio, known as La Roldana, was a Spanish sculptress of the Baroque period and the first female sculptor in Spain about whom there is verified lore. In the Museum of the Latin American Society, Roldán is described as "one of the few female artists who had their own workshop outside the convent in Golden Age Spain". Her father Pedro Roldán was also a sculptor from Seville.
