In 1625 he painted a series of scenes from the life of St. Peter for the Chapel of S. Pedro, Cathedral of Seville, and about the same time his Glory of St. Thom- as Aquinas, his best work, now in the Seville Museum. In 1633 he signed himself painter to the king an honour which he shared with Ve- lasquez. He painted in 1650 the Labours of Hercules, in ten pictures, for the palace of Buen Retiro, now in the Madrid Museum. Zurbaran painted several large compositions, but pre- ferred simple ones requiring but few figures, and generally religious subjects, especially those displaying the rigours and austerities of monastic life.
