Spanish Paintings of the Fifteenth through Nineteenth Centuries

by Jonathan Brown, Richard G. Mann

The National Gallery's collection of Spanish paintings is distinguished by seven of El Greco's works from every period of his activity in Italy and Spain; Diego Velázquez' work on an intimate scale; Bartolomé Esteban Murillo's images addressing both the sacred and profane; and seven of Francisco de Goya's incisive portraits of Spain's aristocratic and intellectual society. Also included are two panels by the Master of the Catholic Kings, which represent Hispano-Flemish painting of the late fifteenth century at its best.
