Catalan Post-Impressionist Mountain Landscape, El Montmell Spain Oil Canvas
Catalan Post-Impressionist Mountain Landscape, El Montmell Spain Oil Canvas

Catalan Post-Impressionist Mountain Landscape, El Montmell Spain Oil Canvas

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Catalan Post-Impressionist Mountain Landscape, El Montmell Spain Artist: Mossèn Ramon Gimbert Canals Title: Font de Volta, Montmell Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 60 x 73 cm / 23.62 x 28.74 in Signature: Signed lower right, “R. Gimbert” Date: 1965 Frame: Unframed Condition: Good vintage condition, consistent with age. Please see photographs for full details. Inscription: Inscribed, titled and dated on the reverse: “Font de Volta – Montmell – 1965” Origin: Catalonia, Spain Description Atmospheric 1965 Catalan Post-Impressionist landscape by Mossèn Ramon Gimbert Canals, depicting the mountainous surroundings of El Montmell in the Baix Penedès region of Tarragona, Catalonia. The painting is specifically identified on the reverse as “Font de Volta – Montmell – 1965”. The Font del Montmell is located in the recreational area of La Joncosa del Montmell, a mountainous landscape in southern Catalonia traditionally associated with the walking route known as the Volta al Montmell. Gimbert presents the landscape through an intensely Mediterranean palette of emerald greens, turquoise blues, ochres and luminous whites. The composition opens from a secluded foreground garden bordered by stone walls and dense vegetation toward the monumental mountain range beyond. A large tree rising at the right edge acts almost as a natural architectural element, framing the view and creating a powerful sense of depth. The handling of the paint is especially attractive. Areas of broad, vigorous brushwork alternate with thicker passages of impasto, particularly across the mountains, vegetation and cloudy sky. Rather than describing every detail literally, Gimbert builds the landscape through colour, texture and light, giving the scene a distinctly modern and expressive character. Painted in 1965, only four years before the artist’s death, the work belongs to Gimbert’s late period and shows the confidence of a painter deeply familiar with the Catalan countryside. El Montmell was not an isolated subject in his production. Other documented works by the artist depict the same area, confirming its importance within his landscape painting. The combination of identifiable location, original reverse inscription, strong Mediterranean character and substantial 60 x 73 cm format makes this a particularly representative example of mid-20th-century Catalan landscape painting. Biography Mossèn Ramon Gimbert Canals was born in Sant Quirze del Vallès on 25 May 1882 and died in Barcelona on 31 July 1969. He was ordained as a Catholic priest in 1908 while simultaneously developing a sustained career as a painter. These biographical dates are recorded by the Arxiu Diocesà de Barcelona. His artistic production concentrated principally on landscape, especially views of Catalonia, rural architecture, gardens, mountain scenery and coastal subjects. El Montmell appears repeatedly among his known works, alongside subjects including Horta, Camprodon and maritime scenes. Gimbert participated actively in the Barcelona art world. His most significant documented exhibition was a solo presentation at the prestigious Galeries Laietanes in Barcelona from 28 December 1935 to 10 January 1936. The exhibition is recorded in the Institut d’Estudis Catalans repertory of individual art exhibitions in Catalonia and included a catalogue listing the exhibited works and their prices. His paintings belong to the broader tradition of 20th-century Catalan landscape painting, combining naturalistic observation with increasingly free brushwork, expressive colour and a distinctly Mediterranean sensitivity to light. Artistic Inspiration The work belongs to the rich tradition of Catalan modern landscape painting developed from the late 19th century onward. Its expressive treatment of colour and vegetation recalls the Mediterranean landscapes of Joaquim Mir, while its luminous atmosphere and direct observation of nature can also be related to painters such as Eliseu Meifrèn, Santiago Rusiñol and Joaquim Sunyer. Rather than suggesting direct stylistic dependence, these comparisons place Gimbert within the wider Catalan and Spanish tradition in which landscape became a vehicle for colour, atmosphere and personal expression.

Original Praying Hands in Violet, Large Spanish Expressionist Figurative Artwork

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Praying Hands in Violet, Large Spanish Expressionist Figurative Artwork Artist: Vicent Calbet Riera (Spanish, 1940–1994) Title: Praying Hands (Descriptive Title) Date: 1993 Medium: Mixed media on paper, oil painting and watercolor Dimensions: 98 × 68 cm / 38.6 × 26.8 in Framed Dimensions: 120 × 90 cm / 47.2 × 35.4 in Signature: Hand-signed and dated by the artist in the upper right corner Framed: Yes, presented in an elegant black frame with gold detailing and black mat Condition: Very good condition Style: Expressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Figurative Expressionism Period: Late 20th Century Origin: Spain, Ibiza, Balearic Islands Subject: Praying hands, spirituality, human expression, emotion Exceptional large-scale expressionist painting by Vicent Calbet Riera (1940–1994), one of the most significant figures in the development of contemporary art in Ibiza, Spain. Created in 1993, just one year before the artist's death, this striking original mixed-media composition belongs to the final and mature period of his artistic career. The painting depicts two monumental hands joined in an evocative gesture of prayer, contemplation, or spiritual devotion. Executed in a powerful combination of oil and watercolor, the composition merges expressive figuration with lyrical abstraction, creating a deeply emotional visual experience. At the center of the painting, the hands emerge from an atmospheric violet background, their forms defined by fiery shades of orange, vermilion, crimson, and brilliant yellow. Energetic touches of turquoise blue, white, and charcoal black introduce movement, contrast, and remarkable visual intensity. The artist's sophisticated handling of different media is particularly compelling. Thick, expressive applications of oil emphasize the hands, giving them an almost sculptural presence, while the watercolor background produces a soft, atmospheric field of purples and blues. This extraordinary interplay between materiality and transparency creates a fascinating tension between the physical and the spiritual, the tangible and the intangible. The hands appear to rise from the composition, transforming a recognizable human gesture into a universal symbol of hope, vulnerability, meditation, and transcendence. Rather than pursuing traditional anatomical realism, Calbet dissolves the boundaries of the human form through vigorous brushwork, gestural abstraction, and an exceptionally expressive use of color. The resulting image possesses an almost mystical quality, encouraging viewers to discover their own emotional and symbolic interpretations. The painting exemplifies the mature artistic language of Vicent Calbet, whose work progressively evolved from figurative representation toward a highly personal synthesis of expressive gesture, abstraction, color, and psychological intensity. Its creation in 1993 is particularly noteworthy. That same year, the artist was the subject of an important retrospective exhibition, *Vicent Calbet. Trenta anys de pintura*, organized in Ibiza and Palma de Mallorca, celebrating three decades of artistic production. Measuring an impressive 98 × 68 cm (38.6 × 26.8 inches), the original painting has a commanding vertical presence. Its elegant black and gold frame brings the overall dimensions to 120 × 90 cm (47.2 × 35.4 inches), making it an outstanding statement piece for sophisticated contemporary interiors. The remarkable combination of vibrant color, emotional expression, and spiritual symbolism makes this original Spanish painting...

Edgar A. (Ted) Batzell (1915=1996) Cubist Tabletop Still Life Composition, ca. 1960. Oil on artist board measuring 16 x 20 inches. Measuring 24 x 28 inches in a wide white frame. Signed by the artist lower right. Ted Batzell, was listed in Who's Who in American Art in 1957, and is now listed in Who Was Who in American Art. First in his class in the Master's of Fine Art program at Syracuse University he was awarded the highest honor along with the Augusta Hazard scholarship to study abroad. In high school he entered a nationwide poster contest and won a four year scholarship to Syracuse, where today for one year's tuition the cost is $45,000. But he never got to use the Augusta Hazard award because World War II broke out and he went to New York City where he studied at the Art Students League and with artist Walt Kuhn as well as others. Hired by the General Electric company art department in Schenectady, N.Y. , he progressed over the 35 years he was there (the only job he had until retirement), to an art director. At General Electric he was a "Madison Avenue Ad Man" for many years, like those in the series "Mad Men", spending every week at General Electric headquarters in New York City. He was known to his fellow artists, many also renowned, as "the Renaissance Man" having a voracious appetite for reading and collecting art books...

Whether growing your current fine art collection or taking the first steps on that journey, you will find an extensive range of original photography, drawings, prints, sculptures, paintings and more on 1stDibs.

Visual art is among the oldest forms of expression, and it has been evolving for centuries. Beautiful objects can provide a window to the past or insight into our current time. Art collecting enhances daily life through the presence of meaningful work. It displays an appreciation for culture, whether a print by Elizabeth Catlett channeling social change or a narrative quilt by Faith Ringgold.

Contemporary art has lured more initiates to collecting than almost any other category, with notable artists including Yayoi Kusama, Marc Chagall, Kehinde Wiley and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Navigating the waiting lists for the next Marlene Dumas, Jeff Koons or Jasper Johns has become competitive.

When you’re living with art, particularly as people more often work from home and enjoy their spaces, it’s important to choose art that resonates with you. While the richness of art with its many movements, styles and histories can be overwhelming, the key is to identify what is appealing and inspiring. Artwork can play with the surrounding color of a room, creating a layered approach. The dynamic shapes and sizes of sculptures can set different moods, such as a bronze by Miguel Guía on a mantel or an Alexander Calder mobile suspended over a table. A wall of art can evoke emotions in an interior while showing off your tastes and interests. A salon-style wall mixing eclectic pieces like landscape paintings with charcoal drawings is a unique way to transform a space and show off a collection.

For art meditating on the subconscious, investigate Surrealists like Joan Miró and Salvador Dalí. Explore Pop art and its leading artists such as Andy Warhol, Rosalyn Drexler and Keith Haring for bright and bold colors. Not only did these artists question art itself, but also how we perceive society. Similarly, 20th-century photography and abstract painting reconsidered the intent of art.

Abstract Expressionists like Helen Frankenthaler and Lee Krasner and Color Field artists including Sam Gilliam broke from conventional ideas of painting, while Op artists such as Yaacov Agam embraced visual trickery and kinetic movement. Novel visuals are also integral to contemporary work influenced by street art, such as sculptures and prints by KAWS.

Realist portraiture is a global tradition reflecting on what makes us human. This is reflected in the work of Slim Aarons, an American photographer whose images are at once candid and polished and appeared in Holiday magazine and elsewhere. Innovative artists Mickalene Thomas and Kerry James Marshall are now offering new perspectives on the form.

Collecting art is a rewarding, lifelong pursuit that can help connect you with the creative ways historic, modern and contemporary artists have engaged with the world. For more tips on piecing together an art collection, see our guide to buying and displaying art.
