Enrique Serra y Auque
Romantic Landscape at Sunset - Oil Painting by E. Serra y Auque

Early 20th Century

About the Item

Romantic Landscape at Sunset is a wonderful oil on canvas realized by Enrique Serra y Auque (1859-1918). There is an inscription, the signature on the lower margin at the center: "Enrique Serra Roma". This marvelous Roman lake landscape delimited by the detail of an elegant statue, is painted with acute pictorial sensibility and a very fine technical ability. In very good condition, with a gilded wooden frame included. Enrique Serra y Auque (Barcelona, 1859 - Rome, 1918) Enrique Serra y Auque today famous for his landscapes, showed his artistic talent early. He attended the Escuela de Bellas Artes in Barcelona and was a pupil of Ramon Marti Alsina, now considered the founder of the Catalan landscape school, and the sculptor Domingo Talarn. At the age of twenty, in 1879, he received a scholarship on merit and moved to Rome, where he remained there for the rest of his life. Here he attended the Chigi Academy, became a friend of Mariano Fortuny, one of the greatest Spanish painters of the 19th century after Goya, and became one of the favorite painters of Pope Leo XIII, who purchased "The Virgin of Monserrato" and made him a member of the Academy of Arcadia. Rome and the Roman countryside offered Serra y Auque the locations for his works. Thus he succeeded in developing that pictorial sensitivity for sunsets, marshes, marshes, ponds with sculptures that are still tangible today.
