[QUOTE]Originally posted by IronLion: [QB] [IMG]http://images.metmuseum.org/CRDImages/ep/web-large/co.ep.1971.86_16.1.jpg[/IMG] Juan de Pareja (1606–1670)[1] was a Spanish painter, born in Antequera, near Málaga, Spain. He is primarily known as a member of the household and workshop of painter Diego Velázquez. His 1661 work The Calling of St. Matthew (sometimes also referred to as The Vocation of St. Matthew) is currently on display at the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain. De Pareja became Velazquez's assistant sometime after the master returned to Madrid from his first trip to Italy in January 1631. After the death of Velazquez he entered the service of Juan del Mazo.[2] He was a freedman, and was described as a "Morisco", being "of mixed heritage and a strange color".[3] The usage of the word "morisco" at the time refer to both descendants of the Muurs who remained in Spain after the conquest of the Albinos... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_de_Pareja [/QB][/QUOTE]
