Blas de Ledesma

Blas de Ledesma was a Spanish painter in the early 17th century. Francisco Pacheco mentions him in Arte de la Pintura (Art of Painting).[1] He was known to work in Granada, and in 1614, he designed a fresco for the Alhambra.[2] His works are difficult to properly attribute, as there are many similar Spanish still life paintings with his signature, and he is sometimes confused with Blas de Prado.[3][2]
