Adoration of the Magi, Catalan Baroque, S.XVI Dated 1527, Oil on Wood

About the Item

Catalan Baroque S.XVI The Adoration of the Magi Oil on wood 92cm x 68cm Dated 1527 At the beginning of the Renaissance period, Gothic forms coexisted in Catalonia with other new solutions, in which religious fervor was mixed with the attention to detail of everyday life. Following the medieval tradition, the altarpieces are thought from a narrative vision, and flat painting predominates in them. The bright colors and the use of light make this work representative of the Renaissance and Catalan Baroque. In informal conversations, Prof. Doctor Alberto Velasco from the University of Lleida has highlighted these very determining characteristics of this pictorial period that are so clearly seen in our work. Origin: This work is the main part of an altarpiece that originally belonged to the collection of Antonio Goytisolo Digat and Catalina Taltavull Victory. Mr. Goytisolo Digat made his fortune in Cuba with the sale of sugar cane and slaves, just like the Taltavull family. In the second half of the 19th century they established their residence in Barcelona at 142 Pau Clarins street where this piece was part of the furniture. Its leaves were auctioned to pay for the trip of Dr. Joaquin Goytisolo Taltavull to Argentina in 1917.
