Andrés de Vargas

Andrés de Vargas (1613 – 1647) was a Spanish painter. He was born at Cuenca, and came to Madrid as a young man. He studied under Francisco Camilo. He painted religious works for the friaries as well as for private patrons of Madrid. He painted works for the cathedral and churches of Cuenca. He painted a series of frescoes in the Our Lady of the Sagrario by order of the Chapter of Cuenca. His style was called by Juan Agustín Ceán Bermúdez "feeble," and injurious to his art was Vargas’ practice of regulating the quality of his pictures by their price.
