Spanish artists
[edit]In Spain, the name Madrazo is strongly associated with an important dynasty of artists. Members of the Madrazo family literally dominated 19th-century painting in Spain. [5] Don Jose de Madrazo y Agudo was a noted painter and teacher who became the Director of the Prado Museum in 1838. His sons were Federico de Madrazo y Kuntz (1815–1894), a painter; Luis de Madrazo y Kuntz (1838–1894), a painter; Pedro de Madrazo y Kuntz (1816–1898), an art critic and Juan de Madrazo y Kuntz, an architect; while his grandsons were Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta (1841–1920), a painter and Ricardo de Madrazo y Garreta (1852–1917), also a painter. His grand-daughter, Cecilia de Madrazo y Garreta married the celebrated Orientalist artist, Mariano Fortuny (1838–1874).[6]
