ULPIANO FERNANDEZ CHECA SANZ
Known in the art world as Ulpiano Checa , was born in Colmenar de Oreja (Madrid) in 1860 and died in Dax (France) in 1916.
He studied at the San Fernando Academy of Fine Arts in Madrid as a student of Federico de Madrazo. In 1884 he obtained a scholarship to attend the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and expand his studies.
His first job as a pensioner causes expectation "The Invasion of the Barbarians" and is awarded at the National Exhibition of 1887 with first medal.
In 1888 he moved to Paris as a graphic corpsponsal of the "Spanish and American Illusion", he quickly integrated into the French capital, and participated in all kinds of official acts and competitions of the artistic world.
His studio at Boulevard Saint Honoré is frequented by the artists of the city.
He is a consecrated painter who sells without difficulties. In 1888 he received the 2nd medal at the Vienna International Exhibition and a 3rd medal at the Universal Parisina in 1889.
Its thematic is varied from the themes of Ancient History to the Orientalists, Parisian views and genre painting, with a thorough and precious brushstroke, which captures the effects of movement and speed (whether in its recreations of the careers of cavallos in the old Rome, or they get their scenes from the contemporary era).
In the "90s" he travels across the Americas and also frequently travels to Venice where he lives long periods.
This work of "Canal Veneciano" is inspired by these long stays in Venice. His brushstroke is much looser with an intense color palette. Life is serene in this painting, it no longer pursues movement as in its many previous works.
The calm and calm waters led channel reflect all the intensity of the sun, creating iridescence of mauve, blue and cream colors.
There is a light contrast between the two faces of facing houses. But the soft contrast, not very intense. Giving a feeling of placidity and charm to the work.

An elegant night view of the Parisian Republic Square, with amazing light effects that catch us.
This work executed based on brushstrokes of long and safe strokes that make the forms vibrate with vivid color.
Parisian nightlife is trapped in this corner of Paris. The monumental sculpture that symbolizes freedom and that presides over the square serves as a reference behind the tram between a light chiaroscuro. Meanwhile, the effervecent and lively life of the cafes that surround it vibrate strongly with its bright lights.
Èdouard León Cortés (1882–1969) was a French post-impressionist artist of French and Spanish ancestry. He is known as "Le Poète Parisien de la Peinture" or "the Parisian Poet of Painting" because of his diverse Paris cityscapes in a variety of weather and night settings.
Cortes was born on August 6, 1882, in Lagny-sur-Marne, about twenty miles east of Paris. His father, Antonio Cortés, had been a painter for the Spanish Royal...
