José Mora (1638 – 1725) was a Spanish sculptor and pupil of Alonzo Cano. He died in Granada in 1725 and was buried in the Albaicin church. His work can be usefully studied in the eight statues in the Capella del Cardenal in the Cathedral at Córdoba, and in the figures of Saint Bruno and Saint Joseph in the Cartuja near Granada.
