José Gallegos y Arnosa Art

1857-1917
José Gallegos y Arnosa (Jerez de la Frontera, May 3, 1857-Anzio, September 20, 1917) was a Spanish painter and sculptor. Since childhood he was attracted to drawing and painting, highlighting, along with Salvador Sánchez Barbudo, in the pictorial arts. Together they frequently visited the studio of Luis Sevil, romantic painter of the first generation of Jerez painters. After his first learning stage in his hometown, Gallegos left for Madrid in 1873 with the help of his patron Guillermo Garvey, a winemaker, and began a new stage at the Academy of San Fernando. Subsequently, Gallegos also traveled to Tunisia and Morocco, attracted by the light and the suggestive atmosphere of these exotic lands. In 1878 he painted Arab Marriage, a painting purchased by the government, and in the same year he left for Rome in order to expand his knowledge, thus fulfilling the wishes of his patron. In 1880 he decided to settle permanently in the Eternal City. Rome was his definitive residence, although from there he traveled frequently to cities such as Madrid, Seville, Jerez de la Frontera, Munich, London, Paris and Berlin. In 1887 Gallegos married the Italian Giuseppina Trelanzi and, when widowed in 1897, he remarried, this time with the Constance Harding, an English lady. With Giuseppina he has one of the architect's sons: Jorge Gallegos Trelanzi. His cousin José Luis was also the founder of the first official football team in the city of Seville and first president of the said team, the Sevilla Fútbol Club.

Dibujo a la manera de Velasquez (Drawing in the Manner of Velasquez)
By Fernando Botero
Located in Palm Desert, CA
A drawing by Fernando Botero. "Dibujo a la Manera de Velasquez" is a portrait, charcoal and pastel on cardboard in an earth-tone palette by Latin American artist Fernando Botero. It is signed upper right, "Sobre Velazquez Botero -1-27-60 Para Rita. el recuerdo de uno payaso". Fernando Botero, best known for his voluptuously rotund human figures, was born in Medellín, Colombia on April 19, 1932. His father died when he was young, and he was raised by his mother, along with his two brothers. He attended a Jesuit school in Medellín and from the age of 12 to 14, he attended a matador training school. The bull fight became a recurring theme in Botero’s early work and while he was in his early teens, he sold his pictures of bull fights in front of the arena. By the time he was 16 years of age, Botero was working as an illustrator for the local magazine El Colombiano. He also began writing articles about art theory, one of which, entitled Picasso and Non-Conformity in Art, led to his expulsion from the Jesuit school for its endorsement of Cubism. One of Botero’s important early works, Woman Crying...

"Meditation" Dutch Woman Sewing Interior Genre Home scene Fruit Flowers on Table
By Bernard De Hoog
Located in Rancho Santa Fe, CA
Bernard de Hoog was born in Amsterdam in 1866. He studied under J.F. Hulk and J.C. van Essen at the Quellinus School in Amsterdam. Mainly a genre and portrait painter, he occupies a distinguished place among the masters of Dutch modernism. He was associated with The Hague School, primarily a movement of realism, a reaction against Romanticism. He lived and worked in Laren, Haarlem, Bussum, and The Hague enjoying much commercial success. His paintings were readily exported to the United State, Canada, and England. De Hoog advocated the simple country life and produced many endearing interior scenes inspired by compassion for the impoverished existence of the Dutch peasantry. Set within a quiet domestic interior space, our painting catches a meditative moment of a woman in the midst of her sewing. A large window illuminates this intimate interior. de Hoog’s delicate brushwork captures the sunlight reflected in the woman’s red dress...

A Young Woman With Her Dog by Victor Ravet
Located in Stockholm, SE
In this exquisite painting by Victor Ravet, we are transported to an elegant interior setting reminiscent of the grandeur of high-class homes. The focal point is a woman adorned in a shimmering pink gown, radiating grace and sophistication. Bathed in gentle light, her dress catches the glimmer, accentuating her beauty. She holds a treat for a dog in her hand, enticing the furry companion who stands on its hind legs in eager anticipation. The canine's eyes fixated on the delicious morsel, capturing a moment of playful interaction between the woman and her loyal companion. The scene takes on a narrative quality as the young woman's other hand delicately lifts a curtain, hinting at another room beyond. This subtle gesture adds depth to the composition, suggesting a world of hidden secrets and intriguing possibilities within the opulent surroundings. Victor Ravet took inspiration from the Dutch Golden Age painters of the 17th century, such as Vermeer, Jacob Ochtervelt, and Gerrit Dou. This homage to their style and subject matter pays tribute to the timeless allure of domestic scenes, capturing a slice of life in a bygone era. With meticulous attention to detail, Ravet masterfully recreates the textures and fabrics, immersing the viewer in the sumptuousness of the period. The soft play...
