Norbert Wolf

Each book in Taschen's Basic Art series contains a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work, covering the artist's cultural and historical significance, approximately 100 color illustrations with explanations, and a brief biography.

In Diego Velázquez – The Face of Spain, Norbert Wolf presents Velázquez (1599–1660) as a key figure of the Spanish Baroque and one of the greatest painters of all time. Velázquez was the court painter of King Philip IV, known for his exceptional ability to portray not only the aristocracy but also ordinary people, with profound psychological insight. Wolf analyzes masterpieces such as Las Meninas, Portrait of Pope Innocent X and Preparation for Battle, highlighting their compositional complexity, naturalism and subtle play of light. The author emphasizes Velázquez’s ability to portray the truth, but also the dignity of each individual, thereby shaping the visual identity of Spain’s Golden Age. Through Wolf’s interpretation, Velázquez is revealed as an artist of quiet power and profound vision.
