Pedro de Campolargo

Years later, in October 1651, he was again recorded when taking an examination in the "art of painter of images on plates" with Sebastián de Llanos y Valdés.

In Seville, Campolargo formed part of a group of Flemish artists, principally from Antwerp, such as Cornelis Schut III, Jan (Juan) van Mol and Sebastián Faix.

[1] Some of them such as Schut and Campolargo were also involved in the establishment and promotion of the Academy of Fine Arts of Seville founded in 1660.

Until 1663 Campolargo was one of the academy members who promoted the drawing style of Bartolomé Esteban Murillo.

Campolargo is again documented in 1671 while working on the Triumph elevation in the cathedral on the occasion of the celebrations for the canonization of San Fernando, charging for the prints 1800 reales.

In this painting by Bernardo Germán de Llórente , an engraving signed by Pedro de Campolargo is reproduced on the wall
