Astro que reverbera la majestad del monarca Sol : el mecenazgo de don Luis de Haro y del marqués de Heliche en la corte de Felipe IV de España : fiestas, pinturas y espacios de recreo

Abstract

Book chapter on the aristocratic patronage of Italian and Spanish painters at the court of Madrid, by the minister Don Luis de Haro (1603-1661) and his son the Marquis of Heliche (1629-1687). Haro succeeded his uncle Olivares as the court favourite to King Philip IV (1605-1665) until his death in 1661. Under his government, the court's theatrical lavishness was particularly brilliant, with contributions from the migrant artists Baccio del Bianco, Dionisio Mantuano and Francisco Rizi among others.
