Summary
The panorama of baroque painting in Navarre and the Basque Country is complex and has multiple forms. Most of the local painters devoted much of their time to gilding and polychromy on altarpieces and images, but they occasionally painted pictures, on the altarpieces or elsewhere, and even murals. Some of them, born in the land or from abroad, worked above all in painting pictures, having sometimes had the chance to perfect their art in other schools. There were also Basque and Navarran painters that migrated and left their work abroad. Another important aspect was that of pictures brought from other artistic centres in Spain, America, Flanders and Italy, generally donated by Basque and Navarran emigrants, which influenced the local masters to a lesser or greater degree.Sing up and download the publications of Eusko Ikaskuntza
