Francisco de Zurbarán

Francisco de Zurbarán, born in 1598 in Fuente de Cantos and died in 1664 in Madrid, was a Spanish painter known for his religious and monastic scenes. His works, such as 'Saint Serapion' and 'Agnus Dei,' are admired for their spiritual intensity and use of chiaroscuro. Zurbarán's contributions to Baroque art and his exploration of religious themes have made him a celebrated figure in 17th-century Spanish painting.
