Museum of Fine Arts
The second largest art gallery in Spain
It is a fundamental museum to know both the Sevillian Baroque painting, especially Zurbarán, Murillo and Valdés Leal, as well as the Andalusian painting of the nineteenth century. The building that currently houses the Museum was originally built as a convent of La Merced, for the Order of La Merced Calzada de la Asunción, founded by St. Pedro Nolasco in the time of Ferdinand III.
It is worth mentioning the collection of the church of the Merced.
It highlights the collection of Sevillian painting of the seventeenth century, from which you can see works of the most representative Spanish painters such as Murillo, Velázquez, Zurbarán and Valdés Leal.
