Scenes of Las Ramblas in Barcelona remain among the most recognizable urban subjects in European painting and are highly sought after by collectors and interior designers worldwide. Artist Jordi Junyent Title Rambla de las Flores, Barcelona Date 1988 Medium Oil on canvas Dimensions 50 × 61 cm 19.7 × 24 in Signature Signed “Junyent” lower left and dated 1988. Frame Unframed Condition Very good condition. Canvas firm and well stretched. Stable paint layer with bright colors. No visible restorations. Atmospheric urban painting depicting Las Ramblas flower market in Barcelona, one of the most recognizable and vibrant locations in the city. The composition captures the scene after rainfall, with reflective pavement, flower stalls and strolling figures creating depth and movement. The wet street surface reflects light and silhouettes, enhancing the lively Mediterranean atmosphere. Executed with a confident and expressive brushstroke, the artist uses a palette dominated by cool greys, greens and blues contrasted with vivid reds from the flower displays. The simplified figures and loose handling of paint emphasize the mood of the place rather than strict detail, a characteristic approach of post-impressionist urban painting. Scenes of Barcelona’s Las Ramblas are particularly sought after in the international decorative art market due to their strong visual identity and association with one of Europe’s most iconic boulevards. An attractive and highly decorative cityscape, ideal for collectors of European urban painting or for interior design settings seeking a vibrant Mediterranean atmosphere. Jordi Junyent was a Spanish painter active in the late twentieth century whose work focused primarily on urban scenes and Mediterranean city views. His paintings often depict recognizable locations such as the streets of Barcelona, rendered with a loose brushstroke and an emphasis on atmosphere, light and color. Working within a post-impressionist tradition, Junyent developed compositions that balance figurative clarity with painterly spontaneity, making his works appealing within the European decorative art market.

Barcelona Marina with Reflections, Mediterranean Harbor Oil Painting Artist: Rafael Durán Benet Title: Barcelona Harbor Medium: Oil on canvas laid on board Dimensions Height: 50 cm (19.7 in) Width: 61 cm (24 in) Signature Signed lower right “R. Durán”. Frame Unframed. Condition Very good condition. Stable support and well-preserved paint surface. Origin Spain. Period Late 20th century. Atmospheric harbor view of Barcelona painted by Catalan artist Rafael Durán Benet. The composition depicts a marina filled with small boats moored along a wooden pier, their hulls and masts reflected in the calm water of the harbor. The diagonal structure of the pier leads the viewer’s eye into the scene while the vertical rhythm of the masts creates a lively pattern across the skyline. In the background, the architecture of the Barcelona waterfront appears bathed in Mediterranean light, with palm trees and pale façades dissolving softly into the atmosphere. The painting is particularly notable for its treatment of water. Loose brushwork and subtle color variations capture the shifting reflections of boats, masts and buildings, creating a dynamic surface that gives movement and depth to the scene. Durán’s palette combines cool marine blues with warm ochres and oranges, evoking the luminous coastal atmosphere characteristic of the Mediterranean. The result is a vibrant harbor scene that balances urban architecture, maritime life and shimmering reflections. Rafael Durán Benet was a Catalan painter born in Terrassa who developed much of his artistic career in Barcelona. Specializing in urban landscapes and Mediterranean coastal scenes, Durán created numerous views of Barcelona’s harbor and the Catalan coastline. His work reflects a strong impressionist influence, focusing on the capture of light, atmosphere and reflections on water. Through a fluid brushstroke and a vibrant palette, he developed a recognizable style centered on the visual poetry of Mediterranean maritime life.

Artist: José Royo (b. 1941, Valencia, Spain) Title: Mother and Child in Flower Garden Date: 1985 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions (canvas): 100 × 81 cm 39.37 × 31.89 in Signature: Signed lower right “Royo” Frame: Unframed Condition: Very good overall condition. The canvas is stable and well preserved. The paint surface shows original impasto and expressive brushwork consistent with the artist’s technique. Large Spanish Impressionist figurative oil painting depicting a mother and child seated within a lush flowering garden. Painted in 1985, this expressive composition combines vibrant floral color with dynamic brushwork characteristic of late 20th-century Mediterranean figurative painting. The scene unfolds within a dense garden of pink blossoms and rich greenery, creating a vibrant natural environment that surrounds the two central figures. The mother and child appear seated quietly within this floral setting, rendered with loose and expressive brushwork that gives the painting both movement and depth. The composition is built through energetic strokes and visible impasto, particularly in the flowers and vegetation, where layers of color create texture and visual rhythm. The garments of the figures are treated with softer transitions, balancing the dynamic surface with a sense of calm intimacy. The palette combines warm flesh tones with luminous pinks and greens, reflecting the Mediterranean light and painterly tradition associated with Spanish Impressionist figurative painting. With its substantial scale of 100 × 81 cm (39 × 32 inches), the work has a strong visual presence and functions beautifully as a large statement piece for collectors or interior designers seeking expressive European figurative art. The painting is signed by the artist. José Royo (Valencia, 1941) is a Spanish figurative painter known for his expressive brushwork and vibrant Mediterranean palette. His paintings often depict female figures and intimate scenes set within natural environments. Influenced by the Spanish Impressionist tradition and the Valencian school of painting, Royo developed a gestural style characterized by rich color, textured surfaces and dynamic compositions. His work has been exhibited internationally and is represented in numerous private collections. mother and child painting large oil painting figurative oil painting spanish impressionist painting...

Indistinctly signed in Bengali, dated ‘79 Bangladesh/Indian Indistinctly signed in Bengali and dated ‘79 Untitled - Fishermen 1979 Watercolour on paper Paper size: 34 x 53 cm Frame Size: 46 x 62.5 cm Provenance: From a private UK family A fabulously evocative watercolour painting showing fisherman, struggling against the elements. This is Bangladesh, 1979, not long after Independence, when the focus was on the working classes, the everyday struggle to make a living and when the artists depicting these times were concurrently exploring and establishing a new aesthetic. The painting combines naturalism with the wash method of watercolour painting and a reduced palette which allows for a rich harmony of shadow and light. Although appearing to simply utilize monotone colours, closer inspection reveals splashes of quite vivid colours; the yellow on the horizon, a deep crimson on the trousers of one of the figures, blue in the nets etc. The colour is subtle but adds a richness to the overall composition implying that this artist has received an academic training; knowing how to get the most from the materials. Add to this the beautiful watery effect from the wash on the paper and we can immediately see references to Bengal school art techniques. It is not surprising that the artist employs this medium. Neuroarthistory points to the rich heritage of Bengal school painters and the fascination with wash technique emanating from their connection to the water which provides the backbone for the region. From supplying food; fish and seafood, to transportation, agriculture and festivities. Bengal and Bangladesh live and die with the water. Some of the leading protagonists of the mid 20th century Bengal school of painters were equally captivated by the same subject and ideology. D P Roy Choudhury was a leading figure in the academic art institutions in the first half of the 20th century. He was also a great experimenter of style. In the image shown,, we can see Choudhury’s treatment of the same subject and how he to chose the monotone palette. It is through observing the similarities and differences that we begin to learn more about the times these artists were painting in and in the case of the Bangladeshi artists how they were approaching the political traumas of the time. The label to the back of the frame tells its own story;. Saju Arts & Crafts, Dacca-12. “Saju was born in 1944 in Ramu, Cox's Bazar. At one point, he became friends with Shamsul Islam Nizami, one of the veteran painters of Bangladesh. At that time, Nizami was a teacher of the Institute of Fine Arts (now Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Dhaka). Nizami introduced Saju to all the notable painters in the contemporary art scenario -- from master painters like Zainul Abedin, Quamrul Hassan...
