Benedito Calixto de Jesus (14 October 1853 – 31 May 1927) was a Brazilian painter.^[1] His works usually depicted figures from Brazil and Brazilian culture, including a famous portrait of the bandeirante Domingos Jorge Velho in 1923,^[2] and scenes from the coastline of São Paulo.^[3] Unlike many artists of the time, Calixto's patron was an individual other than the state, who were "the most dependable source of patronage."^[4]
