Ribera was a Spanish painter who spent most of his life in Naples, Parma, Genoa, Palermo and Rome. His work impelled the development of Seventeenth-Century Spanish Art, introducing Caravaggio’s tenebrism into our country. Ribera’s paintings are fundamental to understanding the Spanish Baroque School.

Murillo, like his contemporaries Vermeer or Rembrandt was not fond of travels. He neither visited Netherland nor Italy. Yet, thanks to his countryman Velázquez, Murillo had access to the Royal Collection at the Hapsburg Court. So, he met the creations of the great masters, from whose techniques he took various items to build his own style.

Velazquez, in the words of experts, represents the absolute perfection in painting art. As much as Beethoven represents total perfection in music.

Goya applied on his paintings many inventions of Velazquez, who he admired. His portraits combine psychological mastery and technical virtuosity. In his late life he propelled the art of paintings and engravings to an unattainable height.
