Juan Sanchez Cotan - research


Juan Sánchez Cotán (June 25, 1560 – September 8, 1627) was a Spanish Baroque painter, a pioneer of realism in Spain. His still lifes—also called bodegones—were painted in an austere style, especially when compared to similar works in Netherlands and Italy.

Its interesting to see how the fruit and vegetables were suspended and made to sit inside a frame for his still life paintings.
