He met Velázquez (their relationship is reported by Antonio Palomino) in Madrid during his youth, and later studied in Italy, where he is documented in 1643 and where he established an atelier at Como. He returned to Murcia around 1650, where he executed his most famous works, the mural paintings of the Trinity Convent.

gollark: This is of course part of the monad, similarly to how a group is strictly some set and an operation on it.
gollark: Anyway, the burrito is kind of like a spacesuit containing apples, with a box which converts them to oranges.
