Duque Cornejo, Pedro
Duque Cornejo, Pedro (b Seville, 14 Aug. 1678; d Córdoba, 1757). Spanish sculptor, the grandson and pupil of Pedro Roldán and the leading sculptor in Seville in the first half of the 18th century. He also worked elsewhere in southern Spain, including Granada and Córdoba, where he settled after being commissioned to design and carve choir stalls for the cathedral in 1747. This work occupied him for the rest of his life and the stalls are regarded as the finest to be produced in Spain in the 18th century. His style was lively and ornate.
