Synopsis "Velázquez "

The Spanish artist Diego Velázquez (1599 – 1660) was one of the mo st important painters of the Golden Age. Taking as its starting point a group of masterly children’s portraits from the high ‐ profile collection of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, this opulent volume shows a representative cross ‐ section of Velázquez ’s oeuvre, which also includes kitchen still lifes, religious subjects, mythological themes and history paintings. As the court painter of King Philip IV of Spain, Diego Velázquez advanced to become one of the outstanding portraitists of his time. Through their modern and psychologically profound representation of the subject, his likenesses remain an experience for the viewer to this day.
