This catalogue--the first scholarly monograph on Pareja-- discusses the painter's ties to the Madrid School of the 1660s and revises our understanding of artistic production during Spain's Golden Age, with a focus on enslaved artists and artisans. The authors illuminate the highly skilled labor within Seville's multiracial society; the role of Black saints and confraternities in the promotion of Catholicism among enslaved populations; and early twentieth-century scholar Arturo Schomburg's project to recover Pareja's legacy. The book also includes the first illustrated and annotated list of known works attributed to Pareja. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art\/Distributed by Yale University Press \u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (April 3-July 16, 2023) \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Metropolitan Museum of Art New York","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45030300942487,"sku":"9781588397560","price":4836.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781588397560.webp?v=1769205484","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/juan-de-pareja-an-afro-hispanic-painter-in-the-age-of-velazquez-9781588397560","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
