Jim's of Lambertville Fine Art Gallery is proud to present this piece by Harry Leith-Ross (1886 - 1973). The son of an English father and a Dutch mother, Harry Leith-Ross was born in the British Colony of Mauritius, an island in the Indian Ocean a thousand miles off the southeast coast of Africa. His first formal art instruction began in England under Stanhope Forbes, followed by studies with Jean Paul Laurens at the Academie Julian in Paris. Leith-Ross came to the United States to enroll at the National Academy of Design in New York City in 1910, and then to Woodstock, in 1913. It was in Woodstock at the Art Students League, under the tutelage of Birge Harrison and John F. Carlson, that Leith-Ross would receive the training that most influenced his career as an artist. There he formed a lifelong friendship with fellow artist, John Folinsbee. The two artists shared a studio during this time and participated in several joint exhibitions exclusively featuring their work, including an exhibit at the Louis...

Early 1920s Spanish Village Landscape Oil Painting Mediterranean Plein Air Artist: Manuel Isidor Valle Micolau (1874–1959) Title: Spanish village landscape Date: c.1925 Medium: Oil on cardboard Dimensions: 11.5 × 19 cm (4.53 × 7.49 in) Frame dimensions: 22 × 28 cm (8.66 × 11.02 in) Signature: Signed lower left Condition: Good vintage condition Frame: Included Charming early 20th-century Mediterranean village landscape painted around 1925 by Spanish artist Manuel Isidor Valle Micolau. This small yet atmospheric plein-air composition captures the luminous architecture and open spatial rhythm typical of Catalan and Spanish townscapes of the period. The warm ochre building at left anchors the composition while the distant white houses and terracotta roofs dissolve softly into a quiet horizon under a pale sky. Executed with a fresh and direct brushstroke typical of outdoor painting practice, the work preserves the immediacy and spontaneity of early modern Iberian landscape tradition. The palette balances sandy earth tones with soft greys and Mediterranean light blues, creating a refined decorative presence despite its intimate scale. Works of this type were often painted on location and function today as authentic visual fragments of pre-industrial Spain, highly appreciated by collectors seeking original European atmosphere rather than studio reinterpretations. A refined and elegant example of early 20th-century Spanish plein-air painting. Manuel Isidor Valle Micolau (1874–1959) was a Spanish painter and photographer trained at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid and later active in Vic, Catalonia. His work reflects the transition between late academic landscape tradition and early modern plein-air practice in Spain, focusing on architecture, village environments, and atmospheric studies of Mediterranean light. Today his paintings are appreciated for their documentary sensitivity and their connection to the development of early 20th-century Catalan landscape painting. This work relates to the Mediterranean plein-air tradition associated with: Joaquín Sorolla Santiago Rusiñol Modest Urgell Eliseu Meifrèn and early Catalan landscape painters working between Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. Original early 20th-century Spanish plein-air paintings of this intimacy and authenticity are increasingly difficult to source.
