IBARRA, Jose, Mexican artist, born in the city of Mexico in 1688; died there, on November, 1756. He was a pupil of Correa, and was specially famous for the richness of his color, for which he has been called the Murillo of Mexico. His paintings still preserve their brilliancy of color, his specialty being the execution of religious subjects, which are noted for correctness of design and perspective, and are found in many parts of Mexico; the most famous are two allegorical pictures, in the great hall of San Ildefonso, a "Circumcision," hanging in the academy of San Carlos; and a "Calvary," in private possession in Texcoco, which is considered his best work. The academy possesses a collection of his small pictures, representing incidents in the life of the Virgin and Christ.
