Biography
Mariano Fortuny Marsal (1838-1874) was a Spanish painter who is known for his vibrant and detailed depictions of everyday life. Born in Reus, Spain, Fortuny moved to Rome, Italy, where he became a prominent figure in the artistic community. His works, often executed in oil on canvas, capture the immediacy of the moment, characterized by bold strokes and a rich palette. His subjects range from scenes of bullfighting, like the "Bullfight in Madrid," to intimate studies of figures, such as the "Sleeping Woman," which demonstrates a penchant for Orientalist themes. Fortuny's work is highly regarded for its realism, vivid colors, and skillful brushwork.
