About the Item

### Technical Sheet: Title: Rouge de Fond Artist: Javier Vilató (1921–2000) Technique: Oil on canvas Canvas dimensions: 25.6 x 21.3 inches Framed dimensions: 26.8 x 22.4 inches Year of execution: 1977 Condition: Excellent, perfectly preserved with the original frame. Provenance: Acquired from a prestigious private collection. --- ### Artwork Description: Discover *Rouge de Fond*, a masterpiece of modern Spanish art. Painted in 1977, this piece encapsulates the bold use of color and fluid abstraction that define Javier Vilató's work. With a striking red background as the centerpiece, the composition evokes intense emotions and visual dynamism that invite introspection. The abstract forms, arranged with precision and rhythm, are a testament to the artist’s technical mastery and artistic sensibility. The dominance of red, combined with subtle nuances and contrasts, makes this work a unique example of the artist’s production, perfect for those seeking a bold focal point for their collection or space. --- ### Biographical Note: Javier Vilató, born in Barcelona in 1921, was a prominent painter and printmaker whose career was profoundly shaped by his family’s artistic environment. As the nephew and protégé of Pablo Picasso, Vilató not only learned from one of the greatest masters of modern art but also forged his own path, blending cubist influences with his poetic vision. After moving to Paris, Vilató worked tirelessly in his studio, developing a body of work rich in textures, vibrant colors, and shapes that defied conventions. Internationally recognized, Vilató is a key figure in understanding the evolution of Spanish art in the 20th century. --- ### Comparable Artists: - Pablo Picasso: For his formative influence and cubist approach. - Joan Miró: In the chromatic energy and compositional freedom. - Antoni Clavé: For the balance between abstraction and figuration. - Georges Braque: In structural depth and the influence of cubism. --- ### Reasons to Acquire This Work: 1. Legacy of Picasso: Vilató, as the master’s nephew, offers a direct connection to one of the most important names in art history. 2. Artistic and historical value: Represents a key piece of Spanish abstract art from the 1970s. 3. Excellent condition: Perfectly preserved, with its original frame enhancing its presentation. 4. Investment opportunity: Vilató’s works are gaining increasing recognition among collectors and experts. --- With *Rouge de Fond*, add to your collection a piece that combines the intensity of modern art with the sensitivity of an artist directly linked to Picasso’s legacy. Don’t miss the opportunity to make it yours!
