Nicolas Rodriguez Juarez
  • Biography

    Nicolas Rodríguez Juárez was born in Mexico City in 1667, the son of the painter Antonio Rodríguez (active circa 1655-80) and the grandson of José Juárez.

    Presumably trained by his father, Nicolás was certified a Master Painter in December 1687 and married Doña Josefina Ruiz Guerra in 1688. His first dated works appear around 1690. His later artistic career was accompanied by a calling to the church given that after the death of his wife, which some scholars place around 1713, he became a priest.
