About the Item

MARIANO ALONSO PÉREZ Spanish, 1857 - 1930 COURTSHIP signed "Alonso Pérez" (lower left) oil on canvas 23 x 12-1/8 inches (58 x 30.7 cm.) framed: 28-1/2 x 17-3/4 inches (72 x 45cm.) PROVENANCE Private Collection, France Delicate and elegant oil on canvas set in the time of Louis XVI with a subtle, soft brushstroke and a pastel chromatism that evokes the reigning romanticism in the 2nd half of the 18th century with which he had enormous success throughout Europe. Mariano Alonso Pérez and Villagrosa (Zaragoza, 1857-Madrid, 1930) was a Spanish painter. He began his artistic training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zaragoza and continued at the Special School of painting, sculpture and engraving in Madrid. Later he moved to Rome where he attended the Chigi Academy and the Cauva and became familiar with the watercolor technique. In 1889 he settled in Paris where his brother resided the composer Luis Alonso and made different works set in the time of Louis XVI that were in great demand internationally and allowed him to live in a relaxed way. From 1910 he became interested in social theme painting and in 1914, coinciding with the beginning of the First World War, he decided to return to Spain to settle in Madrid, a city where he died in 1930.

  • Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church, 1891
    Located in Stockholm, SE
    "Twilight Landscape with Windmill and Church" is a captivating work by Swedish artist Albert Larsson, painted in 1891 when Larsson was 22 years old. The painting captures a landscape steeped in the quietude of dusk, with a sky ablaze in hues of red and orange, signalling the end of the day. The silhouettes of trees are rendered with astonishing detail against the twilight sky, showcasing Larsson's early mastery of light and shadow. Dominating the pastoral scene is a traditional windmill, its blades stilled against the sky, alongside the spire of a church that pierces the horizon. These structures, together with the meticulously painted trees, are testaments to the human presence within the natural world, suggesting a harmony between the two. A notable feature is the small water-filled furrow in the field, which catches the fading light of the sky, creating a pathway of reflection leading the eye through the composition. This detail highlights Larsson's skill in using light to draw attention to elements within his paintings. Albert Larsson, born on November 4, 1869, in Malmö and passing on August 31, 1952, in Lund, was an artist deeply influenced by his education in Copenhagen at the Art Academy and later at Peder Severin Krøyer...
