Luis de Madrazo’s studio in Madrid
1885 - 1895. Platinotype on paper.Room 060
This is one of a set of photographs - part of the Prado’s collection - showing the interior of the studio set up by Luis de Madrazo (1825-1897) at his home in Calle Caballero de Gracia, in Madrid. The painter’s tools are placed in the foreground, while the rear wall is taken by a number of paintings. Chief among these - due to its large format - is Jesus appears to the Holy Women; a preparatory sketch for the picture leans against the wall beneath the painting.
