ArcadópolisDiego Velázquez
Spanish, 1599–1660. Baroque (Spanish Golden Age)
Diego Velázquez was born in Seville and was painter to King Philip IV in Madrid for almost forty years. He painted with loose brushstrokes that look like smudges up close and turn into lace, silk and living eyes from afar. Many painters, such as Goya and Picasso, considered him their great master.
