Portrait of a Lady with Red Fan, Oil on Canvas, Circa 1945
Portrait of a Lady with Red Fan, Oil on Canvas, Circa 1945

Portrait of a Lady with Red Fan, Oil on Canvas, Circa 1945

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Artist: Francesc Domingo i Segura (Barcelona, 1893 – São Paulo, 1974) Title: Portrait of a Lady with Red Fan Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 76 × 56 cm (29.9 × 22 in), unframed Signature: Signed lower left “F. Domingo” Estimated Date: ca. 1945–1955 Provenance: Private collection Condition Report: Homogeneous superficial craquelure across the surface, especially in the background; varnish possibly not original, with slight yellowing. No paint losses or visible dirt. Canvas stable and well-stretched. DESCRIPTION This female portrait depicts a distinguished woman dressed in a floral-patterned gown in green and pink tones, holding a red fan that provides contrast and character to the composition. The sitter, with a serene expression and a slightly melancholic gaze, is softly illuminated, highlighting the texture of her hair and the delicacy of her skin. The work exemplifies Francesc Domingo’s mature style, where his academic beginnings merge with a livelier palette and touches of modernity, particularly visible in the treatment of patterns. The pink background, with loose brushwork and an almost abstract texture, enhances the sitter’s presence. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Francesc Domingo i Segura (Barcelona, 1893 – São Paulo, 1974) was one of the most versatile Catalan painters of the 20th century. Trained at the Escola Superior de Belles Oficis of the Mancomunitat, he began in the Noucentisme movement and later traveled to Paris, where he absorbed the influence of Cézanne, Cubism, and modern currents. In the 1930s, he cultivated social realism with scenes of Barcelona’s Paral·lel district and the working-class world. After the Spanish Civil War, he went into exile in Latin America, residing first in Buenos Aires and later in São Paulo, where he taught printmaking and co-founded the Grupo Bisonte. His work, with both European influences and local echoes, is represented in museums such as the MNAC and in international collections. SIMILAR ARTISTS For his focus on portraiture and the fusion of academicism and modernity, Francesc Domingo can be compared with: Ricardo Macarrón...
