José Manuel Capuletti (March 21 1925 - September 28, 1978) was a Spanish painter. La Bouteille des Danaides illustrates the Dutch edition (translation Jan Versteeg) of Georges Bataille's Tears of Eros.
- Once ranked by admirers among the principal Spanish painters of the twentieth century, along with Picasso and Dalí, José Manuel Capuletti (1925-1978) was ignored by the critical establishment during his lifetime--though not by discerning collectors, who included Arthur Rubinstein, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and Gladys Lloyd Robinson (Mrs. Edward G. Robinson). Prince Juan Carlos, the future king of Spain, was among the notable figures whose portraits he painted. Since his death, Capuletti has been virtually forgotten. --Louis Torres.
