About the Item

A 1950's oil on canvas painting by Mexican artist Guillermo Gómez Mayorga. The painting depicts a view of La Quebrada cliff in Acapulco, México. The painting is signed on the front and a dedicatory on the back to Spanish artist José Bueno Díaz (b. 1915). The painting has its original wood frame. Guillermo Gómez Mayorga (Puebla, México, 1887 - 1962) was a Mexican painter, one of the first artists who embraced the Impressionist style in Mexico. A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts of Puebla along fellow painter Francisco Morales van der Eyden. He got a scholarship to move to the Mexico City from president Francisco I. Madero. Thanks to that support, Gómez Mayorga got to meet the great teachers of the Academia de San Carlos: José María Velasco, and Germán Gedovius. A landscape artist by calling, Gómez Mayorga painted mountain landscapes, rural views and still-lifes with vivid colors. He excelled as a marine painter. About his sea paintings, historian Rodrigo Amerlinck wrote: "(Gómez Mayorga was) a prominent artist who loved painting the sea, which he could paint with majesty, showing the ferocity of the sea and the zones of foamy water that cause a sense of classical beauty. His best sea paintings were painted only with two elements: water and sky. With these limitations, he built challenging scenes and serene atmospheres with rhythm, densities, movements, monochrome tonalities and luminic accents into fresh traditional Mexican beaches".
