Juan Gómez de Mora (1586–1648)[1] was a Spanish architect, active in the 17th century. He was a main figure of Spanish early-Baroque architecture in the city of Madrid.[1]
Gómez de Mora was born and died in Madrid. His father, also Juan Gómez,[1] was a Spanish Renaissance court painter to Philip II of Spain and was brother-in-law of the architect Francisco de Mora.[2] Spanish art historian Virginia Tovar Martín has published scholarly works on Gómez de Mora.[3]
