Bartolomé Estebán Murillo
ARTISTBartolomé Esteban Murillo (1617 - 1642) was born as the youngest of 14 children in the Seville area. The surname Murillo, with which he often signed his works, is actually the surname of his maternal grandmother. Since his parents died when he was about 10 years old, he was placed under the guardianship of Juan Augustin Lagares, the husband of one of his sisters. Murillo began his art studies in Seville with a distant relative of his mother Juan del Castillo. In the family of his mother Maria Pérez there were many artists, such as Murillo's uncle the painter Antonio Pérez.
