Cristian Mesa Velazquez
Walk through El Retiro Park Madrid oil painting Impressionism Emerging Artist

2023

About the Item

Walk through Retiro is an Impressionism painting by the young Cuban artist Cristian Velazquez who lives in Spain. El Retiro Park is a green oasis in the heart of the city. In it you’ll find all kinds of interesting monuments and gardens, including the Jardín de Vivaces, the Jardines de Cecilio Rodríguez (Andalusian-inspired classicistic gardens), the Jardines del Arquitecto Herrero Palacios, the Rosaleda rose garden and the Parterre Francés, which holds a Mexican conifer that is nearly 400 years old and is believed to be Madrid’s oldest tree. In addition to its role as one of the city’s green lungs, it is also a popular spot among Madrileños who like to go there for a stroll, to do some sport, visit an exhibition or take the kids to a puppet show. The park is home to a large artificial lake, where you can rent a rowing boat, and to the Velázquez Palace and Glass Palace which are both currently used as exhibition halls by the Reina Sofía Museum. The latter is a beautiful glass pavilion built in 1887 to house exotic plants for an exhibition on the Philippines. It is one the finest examples of cast-iron architecture in Spain. Cuban art is becoming popular around the world because of the talented arts and the reasonable prices on their art. Cristian has won several prizes in Cuba and Europe. The artist recently won an art prize in Luxembourg and is in collections in The Americas and Europe. Born in Cuba, Mesa proposes an art that is reminiscent of the great masters of drawing, due to the cleanliness of his line that combines with highly contrasting tones.
