Francisco de Zurbarán

Spanish, 1598–1664

Francisco de Zurbarán (1598–1664) è stato un pittore spagnolo barocco riconosciuto per le sue opere religiose che ritraggono monaci, monache e martiri, oltre che per i suoi dipinti di nature morte. Fu battezzato il 7 novembre 1598 a Fuente de Cantos, in Extremadura, da Luis de Zurbarán e Isabel Márquez. L'uso da parte di Zurbarán di forti contrasti di luce e ombra gli valse il soprannome di "Caravaggio spagnolo". Completò importanti commissioni per istituzioni religiose a Siviglia e fu nominato pittore di Filippo IV; morì nel 1664, lasciando un patrimonio valutato circa 20.000 reales.
