Gabriel de la Corte (1648 – 6 August 1694) was a Spanish painter with little success who lived in poverty,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Life of Gabriel de la Corte )〕 specializing in the painting of vases, baskets, garlands and signboards, that he had learned to paint without help of any teacher. The painting of flowers acquired a prestigious category during the last decades of the 17th century, taking such a distinguished position away from the painting of fruits and, above all, grapes, that was very fashionable during the first years of the six hundreds. In this context Gabriel was selling his works “on account of the necessity”, at a very low price, and some of the Madrid painters of that time charged him with the job of helping them in their minor works. ==Works== *''Stil-Life of Flowers in a Woven Basket'', private collection *Two paintings of the ''Vase of Flowers'' *''Flowers in a Basket'' (1680s) *Two paintings of ''Grotesques with Flowers'' (1690), Museo del Prado 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gabriel de la Corte」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
