Pedro de Camprobín (c. 1605-1674). Renowned painter of still life. His working career was mainly spent in Seville. The Spanish Wikipedia article is significantly better than the Englkish entry. http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedro_de_Camprob%C3%ADn
His Caballero y la muerte is one of his most famous works and includes a fine depiction of an early 17th-century guitar.
