Ignacio Merino Muñoz (30 January 1817–17 March 1876) was a Peruvian painter notable for historical and costumbrista works, and considered the founder of the Peruvian school of painting.[1][2] Beginning at age 6, he spent much of his life in Paris.[3]
His artworks inspired French writer Jules Verne's 1852 short story "Martin Paz," which was set in Lima, Peru and begins with a summarization of Merino's life and art.[1][3]
