![Enrique Simonet - Eclipse [1905]](http://c1.staticflickr.com/1/500/18150491819_e472ae7f15_o.jpg)
Enrique Simonet (Valencia, February 2, 1866 - Madrid, April 20, 1927) was a Spanish painter. Apparently his first vocation of childhood was religious studies, but he abandoned it to devote himself to painting. In 1887 obtained a grant to study painting in the Fine Arts Academy in Rome, where he painted in 1890 Anatomy of a Heart; a painting that would bring him international recognition and which won him several prizes. Taking advantage of his stay Simonet travelled throughout Italy, visited Paris several times and in 1890 he made a tour of the Mediterranean. The painting shows the Solar eclipse of August 30, 1905.
