The artwork in Today's Daily Jigsaw Puzzle is titled "The Guitar Player", and the artist is Almeida Júnior ♥
José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior (1850–1899) was a groundbreaking Brazilian painter known for bringing Realism and Naturalism to national art.
Born in Itu, São Paulo, he studied at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in Rio and later at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, supported by Emperor Pedro II. There, he learned European academic techniques—precise drawing, mastery of light and shadow, and layered oil painting—skills rooted in classical traditions.
Initially focused on religious themes, he later turned to rural Brazilian life, portraying caipiras (country folk) with empathy and honesty. His fusion of European style with local subjects shaped modern Brazilian painting.
