The Best of Spanish Painters
The best of Spanish painters in his time
(According to his peers), his status grew
Until he held the highest posts, the prime
Positions. This was Francisco Bayeu.
Tiepelo, who painted at the court
Of Spain in parallel with him, is still
Remembered. But fame decided to abort
Bayeu like canvases scrubbed blank, until
These days he floats, a concave space beside
Su hermano putativo. What cause
Could bring this outcome? Bayeu rode the tide
But with a style from academic laws.
..Forget the rules forever bloody neat
….Embrace the cannibalism of meat.
