Large Museum Scale Surrealist Composition Dalí Circle Catalan Oil Painting art

By Antoni Pitxot

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Large Museum Scale Surrealist Composition Dalí Circle Catalan Painting 1987 Artist: Antoni Pitxot Birth–death: Figueres, 1934–2015 Title: Battle of Constantine Series Date: 1987 Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 100 × 100 cm (39.4 × 39.4 in) Signature: Signed and dated “pitxot 87” lower right Condition: Excellent overall condition Frame: Unframed Provenance: Private collection, Barcelona DESCRIPTION Important large-scale surrealist oil painting executed in 1987 by Antoni Pitxot, one of the closest artistic collaborators of Salvador Dalí and a central figure within the visual universe of the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres. This powerful 100 × 100 cm composition belongs to Pitxot’s Battle of Constantine series, one of the artist’s most ambitious narrative cycles. In this work, his unmistakable geological figuration becomes a theatrical surrealist battlefield, where mineral forms, latent human presences, fossil memory and Mediterranean landscape merge into a monumental symbolic construction. Pitxot’s mature paintings are instantly recognizable for their transformation of stones into anthropomorphic figures and metaphysical architectures. Rather than depicting a conventional landscape, the artist creates a stage of petrified forms, suspended between archaeology, sculpture, mythology and dream imagery. The work is especially strong for its museum-scale square format, its dramatic vertical construction and its direct connection with the Dalí circle. Large paintings by Pitxot with this level of compositional complexity are considerably less common than his smaller cabinet-format works and are particularly attractive for collectors of Spanish surrealism, Catalan modernism, European surrealism and artists connected to Salvador Dalí. A major statement piece with exceptional wall presence, ideal for an important private collection, curated interior or collector focused on late twentieth-century European surrealism. ARTIST BIO Antoni Pitxot (Figueres, 1934 – Cadaqués, 2015) was a Catalan painter and one of the most significant artists associated with Salvador Dalí’s late artistic environment. Born into the historic Pichot family, closely linked to the artistic life of Cadaqués, Pitxot studied drawing in San Sebastián under Juan Núñez, who had also been Dalí’s teacher. During the 1950s and early 1960s he exhibited in Barcelona, Madrid, Bilbao and Lisbon before settling permanently in Cadaqués in 1966. From that moment, he developed his mature and highly distinctive pictorial language based on the rock formations of Cap de Creus. Pitxot collected stones from the coast, arranged them in his studio as sculptural constructions, and then transformed them into oil paintings populated by anthropomorphic mineral figures. His friendship and artistic collaboration with Salvador Dalí became central to his career. Dalí dedicated a permanent gallery to Pitxot’s work inside the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres. After Dalí’s death...

Las Ramblas Barcelona Flower Market Street Scene Painting Urban Impressionist

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

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.

Large Mother and Child in Flower Garden Oil Painting, Spanish Impressionist art

By José Royo

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

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...
