Santiago Arcos (1865-1912)
[S. Arcos, Santiago Arcos y Megalde, Megalde Y Arcos]

Pupil of:

Bonnat and Madrazo

Santiago Arcos, the painter of "The Abduction of Chloris by Boreas," is an artist of Spanish birth, but a pupil in Paris of Bonnat and of Madrazo, and has his home in that city. He became first known as a portrait painter, and enjoyed an extensive patronage, but found time, in intervals between his commissions, to execute pictures of a character of subject to demonstrate that he was an artist of a fecund imagination and a free and powerful brush.
