Murillo and the North: the case of Michael Sweerts

View through CrossRef
Based on a number of visual consonances, it seems apparent that the Spanish painter, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, somehow knew the work of the Brussels-born artist, Michael Sweerts1. Murillo only left his native Seville once, in 1658 for a brief trip to Madrid. Sweerts is not recorded as ever having traveled to Spain. Although there is as yet no definitive proof, this essay traces ways in which the Spanish artist could have come into contact with Sweerts’s work.
