'''Francisco de Zurbarán''' (1598 – 1664) was an Spanish [[baroque]] painter. Zurbarán along with his friend [[Diego Velazquez]] and [[Bartolomé Esteban Murillo]] are the best painters of the Spanish Golden Age. He ''painted profound spiritual content, his works almost in totality were of a religious nature. Zurbarán's mastery stands out also in some of his portrait works and his still life which he painted with extreme sensibilty.'' [http://www.spanisharts.com/prado/zurbaran.htm#]
