"The Waterseller of Seville" is an esteemed work by Diego Rodriguez de Silva y Velázquez, prominent 17th century Spanish painter who was a personality of Western art history. Painted in 1623, the painting is a noteworthy exemplar of Velázquez's early genre works which showcased everyday life in his native Seville.

The subject of this painting is a waterseller, a profession common in the 17th century Spanish society. The scene depicts an old waterseller handing a glass vessel filled with water to a young boy, with a mysterious man in the background obscured in shadow. Traditionally, the watersellers were known for their honesty, thus symbolizing virtue in contrast to worldly vanity.

Covering an approximate area of 107 cm x 81 cm, the painting exhibits a powerful command of naturalistic details, accentuated by the interplay of light and shadow, indicative of the brilliant chiaroscuro technique Velázquez was known for. Noteworthy is the meticulously painted ceramic jars and the glass of water, reflecting light, often interpreted as the artist's contemplation on the impermanent and fragile aspects of life.

Currently housed in the Apsley House in London, "The Waterseller of Seville" remains one of Velázquez's most acclaimed works. Its striking realism and profound impact on the viewer heralded Velázquez's impending mastery, which would continue to bloom in bracing ways in his later works.
