A couple of things seem weird here: the value judgment saying he was never as good a painter as his master (we're talking about DIEGO VELAZQUEZ; that doesn't even need to be said, I think) and "only" minor works, which I think comes across as unnecessarily demeaning--let's talk about what he DID accomplish only; and later, the article mentions that the Innocent X picture was difficult because Velazquez had to paint "from life"... unlike his other portraits, which were ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.169.231.108 ( talk) 14:05, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
the novel I, Juan de pareja is a biography of Juan himself. Go check it out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JuliusIIguy ( talk • contribs) 02:30, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
Written at a middle school level. Keep in mind, though, that it IS a novel.

I remember hearing some interesting stories about Juan de Pareja a while ago--unfortunately I cannot now find sources for them. Here's what I recall:
Has anyone else heard these stories, or know where they might come from? Many thanks, CordeliaNaismith ( talk) 04:00, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
I'm confused by this article. Is it meant to be about the masterpiece PAINTING, Juan de Pareja or the wonderful ARTIST, Juan de Pareja? It blurs both topics together and really shortchanges the man, who went on to have a successful career. Although he didn't reach the pinnacle that Velásquez did, he was darned good; his work is still included in college-level art history courses.
The article needs to establish a focus. If the focus goes to the painting, then an article for the man should be created, too. 68.197.49.1 ( talk) 04:03, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
According to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's "Online Collection" section of their website, de Pareja was freed in 1654. See the information that accompanies the Museum's Velázquez portrait of de Pareja: http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/437869
I went to JSTOR to see the article on his manumission papers, and was able to access a preview of "Velázquez Marginalia: His Slave Juan de Pareja and His Illegitimate Son Antonio" by Jennifer Montagu, The Burlington Magazine, Vol. 125, No. 968 (Nov., 1983), pp. 683-685. The documents are not mentioned on that first page. Is this the correct article? Thank you, Wordreader ( talk) 06:42, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
I am very confused by this... And also, where did Juan travel with Diego? I am doing a history paper and an answer ASAP!!! Jazzygirl4406 ( talk) 19:04, 27 March 2018 (UTC)--Jazzy-- Jazzygirl4406 ( talk) 19:04, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
