Gabriel Portoles Ascaso Art
Spanish, b. 1930
Huesca Pyrenees has been giving shape to what he studied at the Llotja School in Barcelona, specifically drawing, and then the polychromy that he learned with Jordi Alumá. Over time it has been renewed, not only in the forms, which would be the most natural, but also in the materials, in the technical elements that it has used and that it uses, such as that specialty that it has made its own, tempering egg on board, an expressive mode that began in the 1960s and continues.
He has exhibited frequently, both in our country and in France, Germany and the United States, where his technique is highly appreciated, with which he achieves clean, soft lighting surfaces, impeccably executed, with tones and transparencies that touch the genius, and, of course, very personal, although the drawing, perfect in the form of execution, is based on the classics of the great centuries of painting.
Graceful, ethereal, almost spiritual female figures, with their slightly bluish flesh, powerful gazes, elegant nudes at times, ample clothing at others, and backgrounds with natural elements, flowers or oriental rhythms. His works have a peculiar baroque air, which is usually developed in successive superimpositions.
He also stands out in some balanced still lifes, careful in their composition on different planes, which allows the color to be broken down in a very personal and almost unique way for this veteran artist.
All this allows him to achieve a diction expressed with his own voice, sensitive lyricism and the good work of a master. His works are, without a doubt, instantly identifiable and unrepeatable, because there is only one Gabriel Portolés.
Reaching environments of great sensitivity, as if the sun were penetrating through the walls of an old cathedral through the luminous and brightly colored glass. In these canvases, both the lyricism of a poet of brushes and the master technique of a master of the language of shapes and color stand out.to

After Sunset by the Lake, 1889 by Swedish Artist Anton Genberg, 1889
Located in Stockholm, SE
Among the treasured classic arts we offer for sale is this stunning painting by the artist Anton Genberg. Born in 1862 to Pehr Jonsson and Anna Genberg, he left an indelible mark on the art world through his magnificent creations. Genberg's life was colored with a passion for exploration, study, and artistic expression.
His artistic journey began with studies at the Tekniska skolan in Stockholm from 1882 to 1884, during which he also honed his skills at Oscar Törnås' private painting school. He furthered his education under the tutelage of Per Daniel Holm at the prestigious Konstakademien from 1884 to 1889. During these years, Genberg's exceptional talent was recognized with numerous scholarships and medals.
Our painting, dated 1889, transports us to a captivating scene just some minutes after sunset. The canvas is imbued with a beautiful golden glow as the sun's last rays kiss the sky. Amidst a serene lake, the heavenly light reflects, painting the water's surface with mesmerizing shades of purple. In the distance, the landscape is dominated by a mountainous forest, while in the foreground, a stretch of land adorned with bushes creates a sense of depth. The impressionist style comes alive through Genberg's swift brushstrokes, reminiscent of the masterful techniques employed by Rembrandt, with branches delicately etched using the opposite end of the brush.
Genberg's fame as a landscape artist was solidified through his enchanting depictions of snow-laden landscapes from Norrland, particularly the majestic "fjällen" (mountains). His art also captured the allure of Stockholm, Dalarna, and his birthplace in Jämtland. Notably, his masterpiece "Vinterafton" earned him a place of honor at the esteemed Nationalmuseum.
Beyond his creative pursuits, Anton Genberg was actively involved in the art community. He served as the vice-chairman of the Svenska konstnärernas förening from 1913 to 1918 and held a position on the board of Sveriges allmänna konstförening from 1906 to 1939. His exceptional contributions were recognized when he was elected as a member of the Konstakademien in 1922.
Throughout his life, Genberg resided in various places, leaving behind a trail of artistic inspiration. From 1916 to 1924, he lived in the enchanting Villa Wallbeck-Hansen, a masterpiece of national romanticism...

Vase in the Window (Impressionist Floral Still Life Painting of Pink Peonies)

Vase in the Window (Impressionist Floral Still Life of Magenta Pink Peony Flowers in a Vase Against an Off-White Window Scene) by David Konigsberg
oil on panel
50 x 36 x 1.5 inches
no frame required - painting is wired on reverse for easy installation
Signed by the artist, verso
This painting is an exquisite example of the artist's unique ability to capture the very whimsical side of nature. Widely known for painting expansive views of the Hudson Valley where the artist often embarks on extensive hiking trails, Konigsberg also takes to painting more intimate and commonplace household objects. A coffee pot, salt and pepper shaker, or as in this case, a simple bouquet of long stemmed pink peonies careening over the side of a green vase; his use of oil washes capture both fluidity and structure. The fanciful treatment of the flowers calls to mind French Impressionist Toulouse Latrec...
