Victoriano Balasanz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Victoriano Balasanz Sánchez (23 March 1854 — 27 October 1929) was a Spanish painter.
Balasanz was born on 23 March 1854 in Castiliscar, although he was primarily circumscribed to Zaragoza.[1] One of his teachers at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Zaragoza was Eduardo López del Plano [es],[2] also studying at the Escuela Especial de Madrid.[3] He cultivated history painting in a "rather cold and awkward" manner, as described by Federico Torralba Soriano [es],[4] and gained some reputation.[5] Like Plano, he became a pensioner[2] and was in correspondence with Zenón Trigo when there were difficulties with the Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza [es].[6] Related to spiritism,[7] he died on 27 October 1929 in Montevideo,[8] having emigrated to South America in old age.[9]
