Enrique Serra y Auque Figurative Paintings
Spanish, 1859-1918
Enrique Serra Auqué was famous for his landscapes and showed his artistic talent early. He attended the Escuela de Bellas Artes in Barcelona and was a pupil of Ramon Marti Alsina, now considered the founder of the Catalan landscape school, and the sculptor Domingo Talarn. At the age of 20, in 1879, Auqué received a scholarship on merit and moved to Rome, where he remained there for the rest of his life. Here he attended the Chigi Academy, became a friend of Mariano Fortuny, one of the greatest Spanish painters of the 19th century after Goya, and became one of the favorite painters of Pope Leo XIII, who purchased The Virgin of Monserrato and made him a member of the Academy of Arcadia. Rome and the Roman countryside offered Auqué the locations for his works. Thus, he succeeded in developing that pictorial sensitivity for sunsets, marshes, marshes, ponds with sculptures that are still tangible today.

Style: Post-Impressionism with Expressionist influences
Dimensions:

DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
Shepherd in the Pyrenees by Enric Porta i Mestre depicts a rural scene with a striking sense of introspection and evocative charm. The painting portrays a shepherd tending to his flock amidst the mountainous landscape typical of the Catalan Pyrenees. The composition captures the serenity and beauty of nature through vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes.

The energetic and textured brushwork infuses the painting with a lively rhythm, while the rich palette of greens and blues immerses the viewer in the landscape's tranquil atmosphere.
In this piece, Porta i Mestre showcases a mastery of color and light, illustrating his deep connection to his homeland and its rural life, which served as a source of inspiration throughout his career.
