Enoch Wood Perry, Jr. Art
American
Enoch Wood Perry Jr. was a 19th-century American painter known for his thematic and stylistic works, including many portraits and landscapes. He was born on July 31, 1831, in Boston. Perry was trained at the Düsseldorf Academy in Germany by the artist Emile Luetze, author of the painting Washington Crossing the Delaware in 1851. Perry also studied in Paris with Thomas Couture, where he was classmates with Édouard Manet, Toulouse-Lautrec-Monfa and Puvis de Chavannes. Perry returned to the United States and in 1865 moved to Utah, where he was commissioned by the Church to create portraits of early LDS leaders, such as Brigham Young, John Taylor and Wilford Woodruff. During his year-long stay in Utah, Perry co-founded the short-lived Deseret Art Union, based on the American Art Union, a subscription-based organization whose goal was to enlighten and educate the public about art. He left Utah in 1866 for New York, where he took over the studio of his life-long friend and fellow painter, Albert Bierstadt and taught at the American Academy of Art. Enoch Wood Perry’s paintings can be found in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Smithsonian and Boston Museum of Arts. Perry died on December 14, 1915, in New York.

Private Collector, Seville, Spain
José Villegas Cordero (Seville, August 26, 1844-Madrid, November 9, 1921) was a Spanish painter. He directed the Prado Museum between 1901 and 1918.
Biography
He was the brother of the painter Ricardo Villegas Cordero. He began his apprenticeship very young with José María Romero, with whom he remained for two years until entering the School of Fine Arts in Seville, where he was under the tutelage of Eduardo Cano.
In 1860, when he was only 16 years old, he sold his work Little Philosophy for 2,000 reais at the Seville Exhibition. In 1867 he traveled to Madrid, where he entered Federico Madrazo's studio. There he established friendship with painters Eduardo Rosales and Fortuny.
He went regularly to the Prado where he copied Velázquez, from whom he acquired spontaneity and the use of color for his technique.
Finally, and out of admiration for Fortuny's orientalist painting, he returned to Seville and organized an excursion to Morocco.
At the end of 1868 he decided to travel to Rome accompanied by the painters Rafael Peralta and Luis Jiménez Aranda...
