Title: Rincón de Horta (Corner of Horta) Artist: Antoni Llobet Aracil (Barcelona, 1910 – 1983) Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 46 × 55 cm (18.1 × 21.7 in) Support: Canvas on stretcher Signature: Signed “A. Llobet” in the lower right corner Inscription on reverse: “Rincón de Horta” Estimated period: 1950s–1960s Condition: Good Provenance: Private collection DESCRIPTION The painting depicts a scene of vernacular architecture in Barcelona’s Horta neighborhood, at a time when it still preserved its rural and peaceful character. A dirt path opens between lush vegetation and the façades of traditional houses, wrapped in bougainvillea, ivy, and leafy trees. Light enters from the left, illuminating the walls with warm brushstrokes that contrast with the greens and violets defining the foliage. The atmosphere is serene, almost nostalgic, captured with a loose and impasto technique, especially visible in the sky and vegetation. The composition showcases the painter’s ability to harmonize architecture and nature, conveying the tranquility of a nearly hidden corner. The vibrant brushwork and mastery of color evoke a distinctly Mediterranean sensibility, heir to post-impressionism and the legacy of Joaquim Mir. ABOUT THE ARTIST: ANTONI LLOBET ARACIL Antoni Llobet Aracil was a Catalan painter born in Barcelona in 1910 (according to some sources, 1919) and died in 1983. He trained at the Escola Superior de Belles Arts de Sant Jordi and was a pupil of masters such as José Mongrell and Joaquim Mir. In 1931, he received a scholarship to continue his studies in Rome. His career included exhibitions in Paris, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Iceland, and Mallorca, as well as his native city. He led an itinerant life that enriched his pictorial vision and allowed him to develop a plastic language characterized by free use of color, energetic brushwork, and a poetic view of the landscape. In his works, Llobet blended the impressionist tradition with a Mediterranean sense of light. He alternated natural landscapes, seascapes, rural streets, and urban corners with a rich palette and atmospheric sensitivity. He worked as a drawing and painting teacher and exhibited in prominent venues such as Grifé & Escoda in Barcelona, as well as in Palma and Inca, Mallorca. ARTISTS WITH SIMILAR STYLE The work of Antoni Llobet Aracil can be linked to that of several Catalan and Mediterranean artists through his loose technique, treatment of the landscape, and warm palette: Joaquim Mir i Trinxet – for his impasto brushwork and vibrant luminosity. Rafael Durancamps – for the intimacy and warmth of his urban and rural landscapes. Josep Mompou – for chromatic harmony and evocative simplicity. Isidre Nonell (in some late landscapes) – for dense pictorial matter and atmospheric color. Ramón Vilanova...

Gerrit Beneker (1882 - 1934) Wellfleet, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, New England, 1926 Oil on canvas 20 x 16 inches Signed, titled, and dated lower left Provenance: Louis H. Barnett, Fort Worth, Texas In 1905, Gerrit Beneker began his art career as an illustrator. He married Flora Judd, his high school sweetheart from Grand Rapids and they moved to Brooklyn, NY. Gerrit's early passion was to create an art that would inspire and provide honor to the workingman. As such, he had no interest in painting portraits of pretty women, which were so often seen on the magazine covers of the day. Rather he wanted to seek out workingmen on the bridges, tunnels and skyscrapers of NYC, and paint them in their environments. He completed over 150 magazine covers, numerous ads including many for Ivory Soap...

Crofter Cottahes by F. E. Jamieson (British 1895-1950) signed, lower corner with pseudonym "W. Richards" titled verso to canvas oil painting on canvas, unframed framed: 23 x 30 inches canvas: 16 x 24 inches Fine quality antique oil painting by the much admired and celebrated British artist F. E. Jamieson (1895-1950). The painting is signed by Jamieson to the lower right corner with his favoured pseudonym, "W. Richards". F. E. Jamieson (1895-1950) We are extremely fortunate to have been handling the works of the enigmatic British artist, F. E. Jamieson since the year we began art dealing, 1989. Over this time, coupled with our love of the Scottish landscape, we have bought and sold many hundreds of his paintings, in all their various guises and subjects and are considered by many to be a leading authority on the artist and his work. We are also in the early stages of publishing the Catalogue Raisonne for this artist, of which this painting will be featured. Mr. Jamieson was largely a painter of Scottish landscapes and loch scenes. Born in 1895, Jamieson lived on the south coast of England and was contracted to a large department store to supply them with his paintings. He was an ambitious man and keen to sell more works than through just one shop. In order to do this, he started to sign his works with pseudonyms other than his own name, in order that he could sell his work to a wider audience. It worked and it is considered that Jamieson at least 15 different pseudonym names on his paintings. In addition to selling through furniture shops, Jamieson would travel door to door offering his paintings to housewives and private buyers. In our years of researching the artist, we heard one story related to us by an old customer who remembers that Jamieson started selling door...
