Francisco de Zurbarán

Spanish, 1598–1664

Francisco de Zurbarán (1598–1664) fue un pintor español barroco reconocido por sus obras religiosas que presentan monjes, monjas y mártires, así como por sus pinturas de naturalezas muertas. Fue bautizado el 7 de noviembre de 1598 en Fuente de Cantos, Extremadura, hijo de Luis de Zurbarán e Isabel Márquez. El uso de fuertes contrastes de luz y sombra por parte de Zurbarán le valió el apodo de "Caravaggio español". Completó importantes encargos para instituciones religiosas en Sevilla y fue nombrado pintor de Felipe IV; murió en 1664, dejando una herencia valorada en aproximadamente 20,000 reales.
