The royal portraits by Alonso Sánchez Coello,…

July 1579 CE

The royal portraits by Alonso Sánchez Coello, although influenced by the paintings of both Antonis Mor and Titian, display an original talent and reflect admirably the modesty and formality of the Spanish court.

Paintings of Philip II (circa 1575) and Infanta Isabel Clara Eugenia (1579), both now in the Prado, Madrid, are two of his finest works.
