Ignacio Vergara Gimeno (Valencia, 1715 - 13 April 1776, Valencia) was a Spanish Baroque sculptor.

Life and work

He began his artistic apprenticeship in the studios of his father, Шаблон:Ill, who was also a sculptor. His brother, Шаблон:Ill began his career there as well, but went on to be a painter. Other influences during his formative years include Evaristo Muñoz and Шаблон:Ill.

He was one of the founders and Director-General of the Academia de Bellas Artes de Santa Bárbara, which later became the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia. He was also an Academician of Merit at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid.

His best known work is the portal at the Palace of the Marqués de Dos Aguas, from an architectural design by Шаблон:Ill. Other notable works, all in stone, include the "Angels Venerating Mary" at Valencia Cathedral, several works at the Шаблон:Ill, a statue of saint Anthony the Great at the Шаблон:Ill and one of Saint Bruno in the chapel at the University of Valencia. He also did large scale wood carvings.

All of these works are in the style of the late Baroque, or Rococo. One of his last works, an allegory of King Charles III, accompanied by Justice and Prudence, at the Шаблон:Ill, contains elements that are Neoclassical in nature.[1]
