Spanish Painter

The Spanish Painter, active across the broad recorded span of 1395 to 1670, represents a substantial body of religious and narrative painting within the history of Spanish art. This extensive activity period encompasses 15 attributed paintings documented in major international institutions.

The known corpus of Spanish Painter paintings focuses heavily on complex theological subjects and dramatic biblical scenes. The artist is represented in collections such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Documented works include the highly symbolic composition The Trinity Adored by All Saints, alongside detailed narrative pieces such as Christ among the Doctors and the popular devotional subject Saint Michael and the Dragon.

Further examples of their work explore subjects drawn from the New Testament, notably a pair of compositions depicting the fate of John the Baptist: Salome Dancing before Herod and Salome with the Head of Saint John the Baptist. Given the age of the original artifacts, high-quality prints derived from these important historical paintings are often available today, with many works having entered the public domain.
