Leonardo Jaramillo's birth date is unknown but he was probably born in Seville in the early 17th or late 16th century.[3] He was likely trained or was influenced by Spanish painters Juan de las Roelas and Francisco Pacheco.[3]
Between 1613 and 1615, he moved to the Viceroyalty of Peru.[3] Jaramillo taught painting to students including Tomás Ortiz de Olivares, Juan de Sotomayor, and Miguel de Vargas.[3] His most known work is "La imposición de la casulla a san Ildefonso" (English: Bestow of the Chasuble upon San Ildefonso) (1636).[3]
