Jerónimo Jacinto de Espinosa (1600-1667) was a Spanish Baroque painter born in Cocentaina who trained in the workshop of his own father, also a painter, before enrolling as a teenager in the newly founded Colegio de Pintores in Valencia. His early work shows the influence of Francisco Ribalta, and his mature paintings drew heavily on the religious compositions of Pedro Orrente, producing numerous portraits of the nobility alongside devotional images of the Virgin and individual saints now held in the Museo del Prado and the Basilica of Our Virgin of the Homeless. Because he consistently signed and dated his paintings, his artistic development can be traced clearly across his career, which closed with major altarpiece commissions from the Order of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mercy shortly before his death in Valencia in 1667.
