an eminent Spanish painter, was born at Colmenar de Oreja. He painted history with much success, and in 1685 he was appointed painter to Charles II of Spain. One of his principal works was a large picture of the 'Incarnation,' which Palomino mentions as a very grand composition along with Santa Clara (Saint Clare) (1693) and Santa Gertrudis (Saint Gertrude). He painted much in oil and fresco in the churches and palaces, and the ' 'Legend of Cupid and Psyche,' in the royal palace, is considered one of his best works. He died at Madrid.
