Between Rome and the royal factory
Tapestry cards, Italian grace and Madrid types
Trained in Madrid then in Rome with Corrado Giaquinto, José del Castillo joined the Royal Tapestry Manufacture of Santa Bárbara on his return. Under the direction of Mengs, he designed boxes where hunting, entertainment and popular figures sometimes announced the young Goya. The "José del Castillo" selection notably compares Kite flying with a group of dead birds and Still life with feathered game and hares. His reading favors composition.
Del Castillo combines the elegance learned in Italy with a keen observation of the leisure activities, animals and gestures of everyday Madrid.
Course & style
From Roman apprenticeship to royal decorations
His work is divided between religious commissions, tapestry models, drawings and attentive studies of the natural world.
Two Italian stays
Protected at a very young age, he studied in Rome with Giaquinto and assimilated a flexible line as well as a light color. This milestone sheds light on the "José del Castillo" collection by favoring composition.
Palace and factory
Back in Madrid, he worked under Mengs and supplied Santa Bárbara with compositions for the royal tapestries.
Popular hunts and scenes
