Jenaro Perez Villaamil 1807-1854
was born in Ferrol, Galicia. He was a remarkable painter and prime example of the Galician Romantic Movement. In his work, particularly in his landscapes, he shows an unmistakable taste for the English painters of the same period. Most of his paintings are exhibited at Museo del Prado in Madrid, the city where he died. Herd of Cattle Resting on a Riverbank in Front of a Castle (mk22) 1837
