Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Technical Sheet - Title: Santa Creu d'Olorda - Artist: Rosendo González Carbonell - Technique: Oil on panel - Dimensions without frame: 8.3 x 10.2 in - Dimensions with frame: 13 x 15 in - Date: November 22, 1981 - Condition: Excellent - Signature: Signed in the lower left corner - Location: Depicts the church and landscape of Santa Creu d'Olorda, Catalonia Description This artwork captures the bucolic essence of *Santa Creu d'Olorda*, a picturesque spot nestled in the Collserola hills of Catalonia. The painting, bathed in earthy greens and ochres, highlights Rosendo González Carbonell's mastery in rendering Mediterranean light and the interplay of shadows across the rolling hills and architectural features. His loose, textured brushstrokes evoke a warm, serene atmosphere, transporting the viewer to a tranquil rural scene where nature and architecture harmonize beautifully. The classic frame enhances the piece's artistic quality, making it an excellent choice for both seasoned collectors and lovers of Catalan tradition. Artist Bio Rosendo González Carbonell was a Catalan painter renowned for his landscapes of the Catalonia region and its surroundings. Inspired by nature and local architectural heritage, Carbonell developed a style that balances meticulous detail with an impressionistic brushstroke, bringing his compositions to life. His works often feature depictions of small villages, rural churches, and peaceful landscapes. Carbonell's artistry reflects the tradition of Catalan painters such as Joaquim Mir and Santiago Rusiñol, while also drawing inspiration from great Impressionist masters like Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro.

About the Artist
Suren is an impressionist painter eloquently capturing nature, landscapes, and cityscapes in paint. His body of work reflects several different stylistic approaches. Suren’s scenes in oil are inspired by Impressionist masters Monet and Van Gogh, while his watercolor series of flowers and birds are influenced by Eastern styles of painting and the colors of the Middle Eastern environment. Suren believes his role as an artist is to remind viewers that we all are part of the same natural universe.

It could be argued that cave walls were the canvases for the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict and elevate natural scenery through art, but there is a richer history to consider.

The Netherlands was home to landscapes as a major theme in painting as early as the 1500s, and ink-on-silk paintings in China featured mountains and large bodies of water as far back as the third century. Greeks created vast wall paintings that depicted landscapes and grandiose garden scenes, while in the late 15th century and early 16th century, landscapes were increasingly the subject of watercolor works by the likes of Leonardo da Vinci and Fra Bartolomeo.

The popularity of religious paintings eventually declined altogether, and by the early 19th century, painters of classical landscapes took to painting out-of-doors (plein-air painting). Paintings of natural scenery were increasingly realistic but romanticized too. Into the 20th century, landscapes remained a major theme for many artists, and while the term “landscape painting” may call to mind images of lush, grassy fields and open seascapes, the genre is characterized by more variety, colors and diverse styles than you may think. Painters working in the photorealist style of landscape painting, for example, seek to create works so lifelike that you may confuse their paint for camera pixels. But if you’re shopping for art to outfit an important room, the work needs to be something with a bit of gravitas (and the right frame is important, too).

Adding a landscape painting to your home can introduce peace and serenity within the confines of your own space. (Some may think of it as an aspirational window of sorts rather than a canvas.) Abstract landscape paintings by the likes of Korean painter Seungyoon Choi or Georgia-based artist Katherine Sandoz, on the other hand, bring pops of color and movement into a room. These landscapes refuse to serve as a background. Elsewhere, Adam Straus’s technology-inspired paintings highlight how our extreme involvement with our devices has removed us from the glory of the world around us. Influenced by modern life and steeped in social commentary, Straus’s landscape paintings make us see our surroundings anew.

Whether you’re seeking works by the world’s most notable names or those authored by underground legends, find a vast collection of landscape paintings on 1stDibs.
