“On this occasion we have the privilege of approaching the work of a universal genius,
a unique and unrepeatable creator that we can not ignore.

As a painter, Velázquez maintained a constant goal throughout his career:
to deepen the relationship between art and nature, between the shapes depicted on the canvas
and the natural appearance of the world and the beings that inhabit it.
This research led him to the search for a new way of painting, revolutionary for his time, of his own original technique.

The other facet of Velázquez is his career in the exciting court of Felipe IV.
His increasing dedication to the service of the king’s house hid social ambitions clearly manifested throughout his life.

And this in a country where, unlike what happened in Italy, painting was not a liberal art, but a manual activity,
devoid of any intellectual component.

Immerse yourself in the most valuable of his work and know the secrets of unrepeatable canvases …

Undoubtedly a unique adventure to discover one of the most important masters of Spanish painting.
Are you going to miss it?” … Jesús Manuel Morón Nadador
