Simply divine: the extraordinary supernatural visions of Francisco de Zurbarán

Spanish Baroque master Francisco de Zurbarán is the subject of the National Gallery in London's first major UK exhibition, opening now. The 17th-century painter excelled at depicting supernatural visions and spiritual scenes, using stark contrasts of light and dark to make the immaterial seem tangible. Unlike contemporaries Velázquez and Murillo, Zurbarán created meditative works where time stands still.
