The miniature, location and message.





This stone is painted for Francisco de Zurbarán:

“Francisco de Zurbarán was born in 1598 in this house, in Fuente de Cantos.
He painted in the Baroque style, with the typical contrasting light. His work is somewhat more subdued and less dramatic than is typical of the Baroque. Zurbarán is less well-known than other Spanish masters, such as Velázquez. But was particularly loved for his beautiful natural renderings of fabrics and folds.

This is a miniature painting after a detail from one of his works: “The Crucified Christ and a Painter” (ca. 1650). This painting is possibly also a self-portrait, with himself as the painter St Luke. In the original painting he looks up to Christ on the cross.
But the complete painting does no fit on this small stone.”

This stone started travelling on 2021-10-31.
