Bidspirit auction | Spanish School of the 19th

Spanish School of the 19th Century – Group of Angels - Oil on canvas. A composition of remarkable expressive intensity in which five youthful figures, with long curly hair and faces illuminated by a soft light, are grouped in a pyramidal arrangement, looking in different directions, as if attending to a transcendent vision. The individualized treatment of each face suggests an attention to psychological portraiture and a romantic sensibility, accentuated by the mystical atmosphere and the dark background that frames the figures. The brushstrokes are fluid and blended, with delicate modeling and warm chromaticism that reinforces the introspective tone of the scene. Measures: 55 x 43 cm
