The Death of Eurydice

The Death of Eurydice is a painting by the painter Erasmus Quellinus II, made in 1630, which is housed in the Prado Museum. It was commissioned by Philip IV to Rubens and his workshop for the decoration of the Torre de la Parada, a recreational house located in the Montes del Pardo. The decorative project, in which other authors such as Velázquez also participated, was executed from 1636, when more than sixty works were sent from Antwerp to Madrid.
