About the Item

Title: Profile of a Woman in White Blouse Artist: Josep Puigdengolas Barella (Barcelona, 1906 – 1987) Technique: Oil on panel Dimensions: 13 x 10.6 in Framed dimensions: 16.5 x 14.2 in Signature: Signed lower right Date: Late 1920s, early period of the artist Condition: Excellent. No visible restoration. Original carved and gilded wood frame. Provenance: Private collection 🖋️ Work Description An extraordinary and rare early work by Josep Puigdengolas Barella, painted in the late 1920s. Profile of a Woman in White Blouse transcends portraiture to become a poetic meditation on introspection, light, and emotional restraint. The figure, seen in profile, emerges from a golden-toned background with a delicate harmony of line and shadow. The use of panel enhances the precision of the brushwork, revealing the young artist’s astonishing technical control. The serenity of the composition, combined with the luminous modulation of whites and ochres, echoes the refined atmosphere of Symbolist painting, yet with a modern, understated sensitivity. This painting stands out as a museum-worthy piece—a gem within the oeuvre of Puigdengolas, whose early works are seldom encountered on the market. Its rare theme, exceptional quality, and impeccable state of preservation make it a highly desirable acquisition for connoisseurs of early 20th-century Catalan art. 📚 Brief Biography of the Artist Josep Puigdengolas Barella (1906–1987) was one of the leading Catalan painters of the 20th century, celebrated for his mastery of light and the Mediterranean landscape. Trained by his father, the painter Francesc Puigdengolas, and at the Escola de Belles Arts de Barcelona, he developed a distinct style rooted in post-impressionism. Though best known for landscapes and seascapes, Puigdengolas also created portraits and interior scenes of great sensitivity. His work is part of major public and private collections across Europe. This early painting offers a rare glimpse into the emotional depth and technical refinement of his formative years.
