(1) José Camarón y Boronat

(b Segorbe, 1731; d Valencia, 1803). Painter and draughtsman. He first trained in his father’s workshop, and in 1749 he went to Valencia. In 1752 he moved to Madrid, where he probably studied in the workshop of Francisco Bonay, a Valencian landscape artist and miniaturist, and may have attended the Real Academia de S Fernando, although his name does not appear in the matriculation books for those years. During this period he devoted himself almost exclusively to painting landscapes and miniatures and to copying works by such masters as Titian, Rubens, van Dyck and Murillo.

Part of the Camarón family
