Village landscape, Signed, Spanish School, 20th Century - Oil on panel. Dimensions: 22 x 18 cm; framed 38 x 34 cm. View of a Mediterranean town nestled on a hillside, characterized by whitewashed houses, reddish roofs, and a bell tower that dominates the composition's architectural profile. In the foreground, an earthen landscape unfolds, flanked by trees rendered with loose, impasto brushstrokes, while in the background, mountains and buildings are suggested, softened by a luminous atmosphere. Signed. The work is notable for its use of rapid, vibrant brushstrokes, with visible impasto and a warm palette of ochres, greens, and blues reminiscent of the Spanish landscape tradition of the mid-20th century. The synthetic construction of forms and the artist's interest in light effects lend dynamism and visual freshness to the composition.
