The Surrender of Breda
The Surrender of Breda is a painting by the Spanish Golden Age painter Diego Velázquez. Completed during the years 1634–1635, it depicts the conclusion of the Siege of Breda (1624–1625) and was inspired by Velázquez's visit to Italy with Ambrogio Spinola, the Genoese general who conquered the city. Now held at the Museo del Prado in Madrid, it is considered one of Velázquez's best works.Painting: Diego Velázquez
