About the Item
“Her paintings show an absence of concession, a search for a personal world, for a harmony that is born from contradictory sentiments, between tranquillity and revolt, dreams and doubt. She paints most often in a large scale, on canvas or panels, as comfortable working with oils as with acrylics. As a colorist, she does not ignore the effects of her materials. Movement, light, and suggestions of form work together in her pieces, sometimes to the point of taunting abstraction. The exhibition “The Gardens of the Soul” offers a faithful summary of the work of Fatima El-Hajj, who is seen in her country as the fruits of her French schooling.It is, however, important to note that, having been born and raised in the East, and as she lives there now, she has naturally known to stray from the “orientalist stereotypes” that are ultimately nothing more than a superficial glimpse of one culture upon another, with its inevitable distorted prism, and its received ideas. However, such a classification would be insufficient by far. We must instead find within her art a bridge between two worlds, the East and the West, the visible and the invisible, a style of painting that aligns itself with the universal goal of art."

By Enric Porta Mestre
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona

Artist: Enric Porta i Mestre (1898–1993)
Technique: Oil on canvas
Style: Post-Impressionism with Expressionist influences
Dimensions:
Unframed: 23.6 x 31.9 in

DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
Shepherd in the Pyrenees by Enric Porta i Mestre depicts a rural scene with a striking sense of introspection and evocative charm. The painting portrays a shepherd tending to his flock amidst the mountainous landscape typical of the Catalan Pyrenees. The composition captures the serenity and beauty of nature through vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes.
The work reflects a Post-Impressionist style with loose, bold strokes and vivid tones, combined with Expressionist influences in its ability to evoke emotions beyond the physical depiction. The energetic and textured brushwork infuses the painting with a lively rhythm, while the rich palette of greens and blues immerses the viewer in the landscape's tranquil atmosphere.
In this piece, Porta i Mestre showcases a mastery of color and light, illustrating his deep connection to his homeland and its rural life, which served as a source of inspiration throughout his career.
