Clemente Sánchez

Spanish

Clemente Sánchez is a Spanish Early Baroque Italian artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Museum of Ancient Art.

This Spanish painter was active around 1620, working during the same decades when Velázquez painted royal portraits in Madrid. One of his few known works is *Saint Francis Xavier Preaching in India* from 1634, a scene set far from Spain. His surviving art is rare, so each piece offers a quiet window into 17th-century Spanish religious painting. Explore more Spanish Golden Age art by tapping works like Zurbarán’s *A Young Girl with a Basket*.
