VENEZUELA
mission was granted Velasquez to visit Italy, where he was received with the highest honor, Pope Urban VIII assigning him apartments in the Vatican. In the spring of 1631 he returned to Madrid, where he was cordially welcomed by his royal patron. He had a room assigned to him in the royal palace and the king would often visit him and watch him at his work. Additional honors were conferred upon him by the king from time to time until his death, which took place on Aug. 7, 1660, his wife, who was passionately attached to him, surviving his loss only about a fortnight. With the possible exception of Murillo, Velasquez takes the highest rank among Spanish painters.
