LANDSCAPE. OIL ON CANVAS. GARCÍA LESMES, AURELIO (1884-1942).

Landscape. Oil on canvas. GARCÍA LESMES, Aurelio (Valladolid, Spain, 1884-Mexico City, Mexico, 1942). Signed (lower right area). Aurelio García Lesmes was a Spanish painter who began his training in Valladolid and, thanks to a grant from the Provincial Council, continued it at the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid. It was in Madrid that he gained wider recognition at the National Fine Arts Exhibitions (winning a Third Medal in 1917, a Second in 1922, and a First in 1926). In the capital, he met Valle-Inclán, Ricardo Baroja, Darío de Regoyos, and others, and alternated his time there with extended periods in Valladolid, where he painted his well-known canvases of Castilian countryside. Over time, he established himself as one of the most prestigious Spanish landscape painters of his era and set up his studio in Valladolid. After the Spanish Civil War, he went into exile in Mexico. His work can be seen in prominent institutions such as the Reina Sofía National Art Centre (Madrid) and the Patio Herreriano Museum (Valladolid).

”MALA FAENA” (BAD BULLFIGHT PERFORMANCE). WATERCOLOUR. SIGNED. LLANECE...

Bad work. Watercolor. Signed towards the lower left corner. LLANECES, JOSÉ DE SAN BARTOLOMÉ (Madrid, Spain, 1863-1919). José de San Bartolomé was a Spanish painter and sculptor who worked from childhood in the studio of the photographer Herbert and began his training at the School of Arts and Crafts in Madrid, expanding it at the San Fernando Royal Academy of Fine Arts, while copying works by the masters at the Prado Museum. In 1886, he moved to Paris, dedicating himself primarily to genre painting in the style of Fortuny, a theme that enjoyed great commercial success. He met Francisco Domingo, who opened the doors of the Buenos Aires art market to him, where he received important commissions for painting and sculpture. He was Secretary of the Society of Artists of Paris, and in 1894 he was named a Knight of the Order of Charles III, in 1901 of the Legion of Honor, and in 1902, a Commander of the Order of Isabella the Catholic. At the beginning of the 20th century, he returned to Spain and devoted himself mainly to portraiture, although he also painted landscapes and scenes of everyday life. He enjoyed the patronage of royalty, as evidenced by the portraits he painted of Queen Maria Cristina and various members of the court. In 1925, the Paris Salon paid him posthumous tribute with an exhibition of his work held in France. Works by Llaneces are held in the Prado Museum, the Pablo Sarasate Museum in Pamplona, and the Spanish Embassy in Paris.

SEATED LADY. WATERCOLOUR. JIMENEZ ARANDA, LUIS. ROME, ITALY, 1873.

Seated Woman. Watercolor. JIMÉNEZ ARANDA, Luis. Rome, Italy, 1873. Signed, dated and located (lower right area). Luis Jiménez Aranda (Seville, 1845-Pontoise, France, 1928) was the brother of the painters José and Manuel Jiménez Aranda. He began his training with José, expanding it at the Academy of Fine Arts of Santa Isabel de Hungría in Seville and, even more, going to Rome in 1867 thanks to a four-year stipend provided by a private patron in exchange for a painting a year (here he would train with Marià Fortuny). When this aid ended in 1874, he continued in the city sharing housing with José Villegas Cordero and Francisco Peralta del Campo (all three studying with Eduardo Rosales). In 1876 he settled in Pontoise, near Paris, becoming a naturalized French citizen from 1877 onwards. He participated in several editions of the Paris Salon, in the Universal Expositions of this city in 1889 and of Chicago in 1893 (achieving recognition in both), and in National Exhibitions of Fine Arts of Spain (First Medal in 1892). Well-known for his genre paintings, he specialized in historical subjects, producing numerous important works. His work is held in several private collections and institutions such as the Meadows Museum (Dallas, Texas, USA), the Prado Museum in Madrid, the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville, etc.

Still life with fruit. Oil on canvas. Spanish School, 19th century. A still life of assorted fruits arranged on a simple horizontal surface, accompanied by a light-colored vase of flowers and two other ceramic pieces towards the right of the composition. Clearly, the work is inspired by 17th-century Spanish Baroque still lifes, not the austere ones (like Zurbarán's), but rather those produced when the influence of Flemish still lifes (much more complex and full of detail, figures, etc.) took hold.

GUANG YU, ZHANG FEI AND LIU BEI. PAINTING. CHINA, 20TH CENTURY.

Guang Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei. Watercolor. China, early 20th century. Framed painting depicting three male figures, with text to the right. The seated figure, reading, sits on a throne covered with a tiger skin and is notable for his beard and rich attire. The two standing figures also wear rich (though somewhat less elaborate) garments; one carries a halberd or spear, while the other holds an object. Guang Yu was a military general under Lui Bei during the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms Period of ancient China. His life and achievements were so extolled and glorified that he was deified during the Sui Dynasty, with his exploits further emphasized in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He became a prime example of loyalty and righteousness, and is still venerated today, receiving titles such as "Emperor Guan" or "Lord Guan." Along with Zhang Fei, he shared a fraternal relationship with Lui Bei and accompanied him on some of his early campaigns. Weight: 9 kg.

PORTRAIT, LADY. OIL ON CANVAS. SIGNED (F. LLORET) AND DATED. SPAIN, LA...

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.

NORTHEUROPEAN LANDSCAPE WITH RUINS, AFTER 17TH-CENTURY STYLE. OIL ON B...

“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.

Bullfighting scene. Oil on canvas. Signed (lower left corner). GONZÁLEZ MARCOS, Ángel (Madrid, 1900 – 1978). A master of Impressionist painting, Ángel González focused on bullfighting from a young age. He depicted these subjects from a tragic perspective, the drama starring the bull, the absolute starting point, and not the bullfighter. His work captures the rhythm of the movements of both man and animal, the different phases of the bullfight, the energy, the vibrancy, and the color with great immediacy and dynamism, reflecting bullfighting in all its splendor, without ever losing sight of the expressive function of both the bull and the bullfighter. He exhibited in Spain, Mexico, and Peru, and his work is currently represented in various museums in Spain, as well as in New York, Lima, Bogotá, Caracas, Paris, Lisbon, Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo, and Rome.

Works related to this business are held in several private collections and by the Fondazione Federico Zeri of the University of Bologna.

PALENCIA, GATE OF MONZON. OIL ON CANVAS. SPANISH SCHOOL (A. RODRÍGUEZ)...

View of Palencia, Monzón Gate. Oil on canvas. Spanish School (A. Rodríguez), 19th century. It shows damage. A landscape depicting a town or city wall in the foreground and a tower with a belfry in the background on the right, accompanied by houses, etc. This type of scene and its execution (brushstrokes, colors, fondness for ruins, etc.) were common in 19th-century European schools, in line with a series of principles and tastes that arose, in large part, thanks to Romantic painting. The image shows the Monzón Gate of the Palencia city walls, with the city's cathedral in the background, in a manner very similar to how it could be seen in 19th-century paintings and engravings such as a lithograph from volume 9 of the series "Recuerdos y bellezas de España" (Lithograph "Puerta de Monzón (Palencia)". Drawn from life by FX Parcerisa; lithographed by S. Isla. Lithographed by J. Donon, [1861]).

In this oil painting, a series of figures of humble means and all ages are positioned to the right, and a soldier on horseback has his back to the viewer (a detail which, along with his posture, precludes any possibility of a heroic tone in the work). In the background, ruins with rocks occupy most of the canvas, leaving an opening to the horizon and the light of dawn to the left. The influence of Old Flemish models is clear in the painting, both in the figures themselves and in the composition and the ruins.
