About the Item

Title: View of Barcelona from Montjuïc Artist: Ramón Pichot Soler (Figueres, 1924 – Barcelona, 1996) Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 65 × 100 cm (25.6 × 39.4 in) Support: Canvas mounted on the original wooden stretcher Condition: Good. Visible restoration on the left side Signature: Signed lower right: Ramon Pichot Depicted location: Panoramic view of the city of Barcelona from Montjuïc hill Framing: Unframed Support provenance: Stamp of the fine art dealer Vicente Piera (Barcelona) DESCRIPTION The painting depicts a striking panoramic view of Barcelona from the surroundings of Montjuïc, with Tibidabo in the background and the coastal profile bathed in Mediterranean light. The city unfolds in a vibrant palette of warm tones contrasting with the serene blues of the sky and sea. In the foreground, the greenery of trees and cypresses —rendered with dynamic brushstrokes— gives depth to the scene. Pichot achieves a harmonious balance between nature and urban life, capturing the luminous atmosphere of the early morning or sunset. The composition is structured in well-defined planes, with rich chromatic modulation and a firm execution that reveals the artist’s technical mastery. This work is representative of his mature style, where lyricism, realism, and a subtle plastic sensuality intertwine. ABOUT THE ARTIST Ramón Pichot Soler (1924–1996) was a renowned Catalan painter, grandson of the modernist painter Ramón Pichot Gironès. He began his artistic career in the postwar years, exhibiting at a young age in Barcelona. His work evolved from a realism rooted in Impressionism toward a figurative style of elegant lyricism, characterized by his mastery of color, light, and fluid line. Specializing in portraits, female figures, and Mediterranean landscapes, he was a sought-after artist of his time, exhibiting not only in Spain but also in the United States (Palm Beach, New York). His works are represented in museums such as MACBA and the Museu d’Art de Girona, which dedicated an anthological exhibition to him in 2007. SIMILAR ARTISTS Joaquim Mir – for his chromatic strength and atmospheric treatment of Catalan landscapes. Santiago Rusiñol – for his romantic and urban vision of Barcelona, especially Montjuïc. Joaquim Sunyer – for his balance between Mediterranean clarity and emotional restraint. Emili Grau Sala – for his lyrical elegance in urban and genre scenes. Rafael Durancamps – for his urban lyricism and serene compositions.
