Zurbaran
April 18, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Francisco de Zurbarán: His Epoch, His Life, and His Works," by José Cascales Y. Muñloz. This is the only book ever devoted to the life and works of the Spanish painter, contemporary of Velasquez and Murillo, Francisco de Zurbarán. The first chapter of the book entitled "Legends," is devoted to the demolition of certain tales which have passed current in lieu of biography. The discussion of these meagre facts and of the evidence for them fills the third chapter. The fourth chapter is devoted to a detailed survey of the artist's works, and the fifth to a somewhat monotonous citation of the various criticisms of the painter of Spanish art.
