About the Item

Title: Woman with Pitcher Artist: Antoni Valls Bordoy (1909–1994) Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 35 x 27 cm (13.8 x 10.6 in) Support: Canvas with Casa Teixidor (Barcelona) stamp Signature: Signed lower right: Valls Bordoy, in red Period: Mid-20th century Condition: Good Provenance: Private collection DESCRIPTION An intimate, genre scene depicting a seated woman holding a clay pitcher, her posture serene and her expression introspective. The figure emerges from a loosely painted, vibrant background that suggests a vegetal or domestic environment without descending into anecdotal detail. The white dress, the glimmers on the pitcher, and the contained atmosphere reinforce the poetic charge of the scene. The textured, lively brushstroke, applied with decisiveness, reveals an artist of both technical skill and sensitivity. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Antoni Valls Bordoy (Palma de Mallorca, 1909 – 1994) was a figurative painter connected to both the Mallorcan pictorial tradition and the Catalan artistic milieu. He trained at the School of Arts and Crafts of Palma and later in Barcelona, where he developed part of his career. His work is characterized by a direct, post-impressionist language and themes centered on female figures, Mediterranean landscapes, and intimate interiors. His impasto technique and warm palette are distinctive traits of his style. Though he maintained a discreet profile, his works can be found in private collections in Mallorca and Catalonia. RELATED ARTISTS Isidre Nonell – for the introspective approach to the female figure. Joaquim Mir – for chromatic vibration and expressive backgrounds. Francesc Gimeno – for the authenticity of popular scenes. Anglada Camarasa – in his figurative and textured works. Eliseu Meifrèn – for chromatic sensitivity and Mediterranean light.

At the Yacht Club
By Edward Cucuel
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Artist Edward Cucuel and his wife Clara Lotte von Marcard spent their first two decades together in Germany, mostly in a villa on Lake Ammersee in Holzhausen near Munich. It is the works created in this period, mainly outdoor scenes of young women in fashionable attire of the day, that are most collected and appreciated among his works. It’s easy to see why- they capture an elegance and sense of calm and easy leisure- of long days in gardens or by the water.  This is one of those captured moments with a well-dressed woman watching the sailing yacht...
