Line 1: − '''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#]+ − − Zurbarán adopted Caravaggio's realistic use of chiaroscuro and the severe compositions of Juan Sánchez Cotán. He started painting in the city of Seville, Spain, when he was 15 years old . − − <center> − '''St. Luke the Painter before Christ on the Cross''' − − [[Image:Zurbaran Cristo en la cruz y St. Luke.jpg]] − − According to legend, St. Luke was a painter and Zurbarán, who produced a portrait of himself in order to give shape to this saint, represents him engaged in his hobby and not in an act of devotion.
