Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez (1599-1660) was a Spanish painter who was the leading artist in the court of King Philip IV and one of the most important painters of the Spanish Golden Age. He was an individualistic artist of the contemporary Baroque period, important as a portrait artist. In addition to numerous renditions of scenes of historical and cultural significance, he painted scores of portraits of the Spanish royal family, other notable European figures, and commoners, culminating in the production of his masterpiece Las Meninas (1656).

About Felipe IV (Portraits of Philip IV)
Philip IV of Spain (1605–1665) was the subject of several paintings of the Baroque period, including those of Peter Paul Rubens, but the most notable painter to portray him was the Seville-born Diego Velázquez (1599–1660), who also painted other members of the court. He acquired such fame that he was made court painter and - uniquely - made a member of the Order of Santiago, which then excluded all painters and other manual laborers.
