Vicente Escobar Flores is born in Havana.

Vicente Escobar Flores is born in Havana.
He was a remarkable painter who cultivated, above all, the portrait genre and enjoyed a solid reputation in his time.
Son of a well-to-do black family, belonging to the brotherhoods of brown and free blacks, his work is developed between the two centuries, so you can see characteristics of eighteenth-century painting, particularly in the religious theme, while portraits are more carefree, especially, because of the poses and attitudes of the bourgeois class that it represents.
