OverviewDiego Vel�zquez (1599-1660) is one of the world's most famous artists. Representative of 17th-century European painting, he worked for the Spanish court and for the most important figures, completing numerous portraits. Yet, passionate about the human figure, his oeuvre also encompasses bodeg�nes, representations of daily life in the taverns and kitchens of Spain. Considered the father of Spanish painting, Vel�zquez inspired entire generations of the artists who followed him, including Picasso, Dal�, and Bacon. His mysterious painting Las Meninas, which contains the essence of his work, is still today an inexhaustible source for writing and research.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationCarl Justi (1832-1912) was an art history and philosophy professor at the University of Marburg. Specialist in Portuguese and Renaissance art, he published scores of books on influential personalities such as Winckelmann and Michelangelo. His biographical approach to art history was original and particularly innovative, as he preferred the use of psychology rather than art-historical movements to analyse the artists' aims.
