Velazquez

By S. L. Bensusan

This book presents the life and art of the celebrated Spanish painter Diego Velázquez in this illuminating biography. As the leading artist in the court of King Philip IV during the Spanish Golden Age, Velázquez created a body of work that continues to captivate audiences to this day. From his early, precise tenebrist style to his later, freer brushwork, this book explores Velázquez's evolution as an artist. Alongside numerous historical and cultural scenes, Velázquez's portraits of the Spanish royal family and commoners, including his masterpiece Las Meninas, are examined in detail. This is a must-read for anyone who loves art, history, and the creative process.
