Biography

Posthumous portrait of Joaquín Costa, 1913

Balasanz was born on 23 March 1854 in Castiliscar, although he was primarily circumscribed to Zaragoza. [1] One of his teachers at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Zaragoza was Eduardo López del Plano [ es], [2] also studying at the Escuela Especial de Madrid. [3] He cultivated history painting in a "rather cold and awkward" manner, as described by Federico Torralba Soriano [ es], [4] and gained some reputation. [5] Like Plano, he became a pensioner [2] and was in correspondence with Zenón Trigo when there were difficulties with the Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza [ es]. [6] Related to spiritism, [7] he died on 27 October 1929 in Montevideo, [8] having emigrated to South America in old age. [9]
