Painting
Alonso Cano was a Spanish painter, sculptor, and architect active in the 17th century, based primarily in Granada. Working across multiple disciplines, he developed a refined approach to religious imagery that balanced dramatic emotional intensity with compositional restraint. His paintings and carved wooden sculptures, often depicting sacred subjects, became influential in Andalusian Baroque practice.
