In 1638 he decorated a ceremonial ship presented to the King of Spain by the city of Seville. His Labors of Hercules and two scenes of the Defense of C‡diz, formed the decoration of the Sal—n de Reinos in the Buen Retiro palace. His combination of realism and religious sensibilities conformed well to the guidelines set by the Council of Trent and his art was especially popular with monastic orders in Seville, for whom he painted a cycle on Saint Jerome. His later style changes greatly due to the influence of Murillo. For 10 points, name this artist of Immaculate Conception and Saint Francis in Meditation.
