 Work of the Month - The Chrysler Museum of Art: Education & Events
Coello’s first royal commission – to design triumphal arches for the entry of Queen Marie-Louise d’Orléans (1662-1689) into Madrid – granted him favor at court, where he was named Pintor del Rey in 1683 and the more prestigious Pintor de Cámera three years later.
A prolific artist, Coello painted mainly for royal and court patrons, as well as churches and convents in Madrid, the surrounding areas, and also remoter sites: frescoes for Saragossa and canvases for Corella (Navarre) and Salamanca.
Although its earliest known provenance is in the Spanish royal collections, it is widely accepted that Coello’s first royal commission came in 1680: Queen Marie-Louise’s triumphal arches.
