Peasants on the Bank of the River, Manuel Barrón y Castillo (Seville, 1814-1884), 19th century Spanish school
Canvas measures 71 x 24 cm. Framed measurements: 82 x 135 cm. Seville (1814-1884). Spanish painter. He studied with Antonio Cabral Bejarano at the School of Fine Arts in Seville, of which he would become a professor and director. He was one of the founders of the Liceo Artístico de Sevilla, created in 1838, a member of the Sociedad Económica de Amigos del País in his hometown, and a corresponding academic at the Academia de Santa Isabel de Hungría. He was the greatest representative of Andalusian romantic landscaping, with traditional scenes in the style of his teacher and David Roberts, with whom he spent a season in Seville in 1833. Although already in 1838 he presented some landscapes to the exhibitions of the Liceo and the Seville Economic Society , his first known work is not dated until 1852. He devoted himself fundamentally to landscape, but he also cultivated other genres, such as the portrait, the still life or the painting of customs, especially of daily life in Seville. He attended the National Exhibitions of Fine Arts, and in 1862 Queen Elizabeth II acquired a General View of Seville, which is located in the Riofrío Palace, in Segovia.
