Manuel García y Rodríguez (1863-1925) was Spanish artist. He received his early art education from José de la Vega Marrugal in Seville and later he attended the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Sevilla.
Rodríguez art related to Costumbrista (an art form that followed 19th C trend in literature, by Spanish painters that favoured nationalistic fervour). He also painted Orientalist scenes, and local landscapes.
Rodríguez was also a regular contributor of illustrations for the magazine ‘Blanco y Negro’. In later phase of life worked on painting gardens, patios and parks of Seville. It was in this period, he adopted more modernist and impressionist style.
