Félix Castello

Félix Castello or Castelo (4 July 1595 – 12 September 1651) was a Spanish painter of the Baroque period.

Two years later he received the title of Painter to the King which was made vacant on the death of his father, Castello's style was very similar to the Carducci's, and therefore there have been challenges in identifying attributions.

In 1627 he was called for the second time as Painter to the King position, left vacant now after Bartolomé González y Serrano's death.

Castello painted for the chapel of Santo Cristo de la Paciencia in the Convent of the Capuchins.

The next documented event in his life comes November 1647, when he is widowed, and then remarried soon after to Barbara Huete (February 1648).
