VELAZQUEZ PHILIP IV., KING OF SPAIN
This exquisite portrait and the Rokeby Venus appear to show the influence of Rubens on Velazquez. XLVII. PHILIP IV., KING OF SPAIN. BY VELAZQUEZ VELAZQUEZ THE SCULPTOR![]() Gall. del Prado, Madrid Extreme breadth and subtle modelling combined. XLVIII. THE SCULPTOR. BY VELAZQUEZ VELAZQUEZ THE DWARF
Gall. del Prado, Madrid One of the finest examples of big though subtle modelling. XLIX. THE DWARF. BY VELAZQUEZ RIBERA"The Dead Christ" by Ribera is, like all this master's work, a fine technical achievement, if somewhat heavy in the shadows. His vigorous [215] use of solid pigment in the lights has in it great virility. ZURBARANAnother Spaniard of great distinction. The cowled head of "The Monk at Prayer" is broad and big in feeling. The shadowed face, with its firmly modelled nose, is a superb study, and the gown fine in texture and large in arrangement. " The Nativity " was at one time ascribed to Velazquez. The draperies are certainly not unlike his, but whoever did it produced a work of great merit. The lighting is beautiful, and the final painting is solid and direct. EL GRECO" Christ at the Temple " bears a curious resemblance in colour to Bassano. The figures are attenuated and the heads very tiny. El Greco is said to have much influenced Velazquez. MURILLO"The Infant St. John and the Lamb" is one of his best works-solid, if bituminous. "The Beggar Boy " is good in character, but lacking in substance. His other pictures here are not of the first rank. GOYAIn his portrait of a gentleman he is not unlike Gainsborough, whose work he admired.
