Landscape. Oil on canvas. DEL VAL TROUILLHET, Mercedes (Valladolid, 1926-2012). Signed (lower right area).

“Northern European Landscape with Ruins,” in the style of the 17th century. Oil on panel. Early 20th century. A rural landscape with a stream, a stone bridge, and a ruined house, nestled among trees, enlivened by the presence of a person, and lacking an apparent theme, is inspired by Baroque works from Northern Europe. Given their popularity at the time, this type of painting was revived from the 19th century onward, drawing inspiration from important Baroque works of both the Flemish and Dutch schools. This shift followed the trend of almost all 16th-century landscapes depicting a historical or biblical subject (which was often minimized). Between the late 16th and early 17th centuries, landscape painting gained immense popularity in the Netherlands, with a proliferation of masters specializing in the genre.

“Gypsies”. Oil on canvas. Signed “A. Briones”. 20th century. Oil on canvas depicting a barely sketched natural landscape in the background, giving prominence to the figures advancing in the foreground. The man on the right carries a staff over his shoulder and several other items, and is accompanied by a bear cub. In the center, a woman walks with a walking stick over her shoulder, leading a horse laden with more objects and some children. The painting depicts a Gypsy family on their way to a performance involving a bear cub. Between the 15th and 18th centuries, artistic representations of Gypsies were stereotypical and scarce, with only a few engravings, tapestries, and paintings such as David Teniers III's "Landscape with Gypsies" in the Prado Museum (inv. Poo1818). The 19th century saw the flourishing of Gypsy motifs in the visual arts, driven by the interest of foreign artists drawn to the "exotic" nature of these people. These artists depicted what they considered their most folkloric features, with Fortuny and Sorolla being particularly noteworthy. This work aims to highlight the unique characteristics of the Roma people, but without dwelling solely on stereotypes, clearly depicting the hardships of their lives and the loneliness that accompanied them. Technically, its connection to innovative contributions to French painting from the late 19th century onward is evident. Thematically, it is reminiscent of works of social realism (a painting movement that emerged in France around the mid-19th century).

Lady. Oil on canvas. Signed (F. Lloret.) and dated (February 97) in the lower right corner. Against an indeterminate background, the bust of a lady is depicted, her head slightly turned to the left. In the lower right corner, the painter's signature and the date of the work (February 1897) can be seen. As in the rest of Europe, portraiture was a genre that enjoyed great popularity in 19th-century Spain, mainly due to social changes (the rise of the upper bourgeoisie, etc.) that influenced aesthetics, hence the degree of intimacy that the painting conveys, unlike the "official portraits" preferred by the nobility.
