释义 | Carreño de Miranda, Juan Spanish painter born March 25, 1614, Avilés, Asturias, Spain died Oct. 3, 1685, Madrid ![]() Carreño studied painting under Pedro de las Cavas and Bartolomé Román. He assisted Velázquez in the decoration of the Alcázar in Madrid and the other royal palaces and was appointed painter to King Charles II in 1669 and court painter in 1671. Although he is known primarily as a portraitist, he also painted many religious works in oil and fresco that reveal a unique Baroque sensibility. Such works as his masterpiece, Founding of the Trinitarian Order (1666), are marked by mastery of execution, subtle interplay of light and shadow, and inventiveness of scene. Following the tradition of Velázquez' court portraits, he painted many pictures of the queen mother, Mariana of Austria, and traced in oil the decline of Charles II from a handsome child to a decrepit old man. Even the most repellent portraits of Charles possess the aristocratic elegance that characterize Carreño's paintings. |
