Galo Galecio
Galo Galecio Taranto (June 1, 1906 in Vinces – April 14, 1993 in Quito) was a renowned Ecuadorian painter, sculptor, caricaturist, and printmaker.
He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Guayaquil, and received a scholarship to study printmaking and mural painting at the National Academy of Fine Arts in Mexico from 1944-1946. In Mexico he studied with famous muralist Diego Rivera, and became a member of the printmaking workshop Taller de Gráfica Popular. He then created his first print portfolio Bajo la Linea del Ecuador, one of his most important works.
In 1987 Galo Galecio was awarded Ecuador's most prestigious prize "Premio Eugenio Espejo" for his lifetime work as an artist.[1]

gollark: Alternatively, just add a backdoor and do it later. Somehow nobody noticed me doing that in #9. Anyway, I *do* have a cool image-based esolang sitting around to use somewhere. Maybe I could incorporate that.
gollark: The obvious solution is to reveal all implementation details of lyriclysite™ so we can do that.
gollark: Is there meant to be an image shipped with it?
gollark: But it doesn't SSH into your server.
