Spanish painter in velazquez. 1599 was born in Seville on June 6th, and 1660 died in Madrid on August 6th. In his early years, he studied painting in Elena's old studio, and later he worshipped under the painter F Parichko. The early paintings "Sailor" and "Old Lady with Fried Eggs" are vivid and full of life. 1623 entered Madrid court to serve the king, but was rejected and belittled by conservative painters who worked in the court. 1627, he and conservative painters painted according to the same idea and held an art competition, which won a great victory and consolidated his position in the imperial court. Two years later, the oil painting Bacchus (also known as Drunken) showed that he finally brought the fragrance of the earth into the court. 1629, he got the opportunity to visit Italy, and saw the original paintings of Renaissance masters in Venice, Rome, Naples and other places, paying special attention to the color and light consumption of Venice painting school. After returning to China, his works are softer and more crystal clear, and his images are more vivid and delicate. The most outstanding work of this period is Brayda's Surrender (now generally translated as Bruda's Surrender), which is a large-scale historical painting. The author describes the complex psychological state of the characters in the Spanish-Dutch war with a fair attitude: Spain is the winner, but it is fierce and arrogant, giving people an unpleasant feeling; The Dutch failed, but they didn't lose their dignity. A large number of his portraits adhere to the principle of realism and pay attention to depicting the mental outlook of the characters. Unfortunately, the atmosphere of the picture is too peaceful, which is obviously inconsistent with historical facts, but this has not affected the value of this work. For the representatives of the ruling class, such as Philip IV, it is important to show their hypocrisy, indifference and shallowness, and never flatter them. For the friends and workers at the bottom of society, such as "fan-fanning woman" and "short Antonio", they are portrayed as approachable, and some of them are socially critical. 165 1 ~ 1660 is the last 10 year in his life. He was unhappy because of the controversy over the honor, but he still created many excellent works. His masterpieces Gong E (also known as Maid in Palace) and Textile Woman are considered as rare realistic masterpieces in Europe in the17th century, which also proves that although he has been a court painter for a long time, he has never lost his civilian qualities. Another Chinese translation of velazquez is "velazquez". a maid in an imperial palace

Gong E (right) is his most outstanding masterpiece, depicting the princess dressing up in the morning. He only used two flat mirrors, one large and one small, to reflect four scenes: the painter himself who was painting, the six-year-old princess Margaret, two ladies-in-waiting, two aristocratic girls accompanying the princess and a big dog lying on the ground formed the first floor, and the little princess who was showing her new clothes to the ladies-in-waiting was particularly cute. It is directly reflected by a large flat mirror. A small mirror is reflected in the big mirror, and the king and queen are looking at their daughters through the small mirror. This is the second scene; It is difficult to distinguish the third scene from the fourth scene. The third scene consists of ministers and courtiers, and the fourth scene is the Ming Gallery behind the ministers.
