EUGENIO D'ORS ROVIRA (Barcelona, 1881- Villanueva y Geltrú, 1954)."Portrait of Carlota Rower.Ink on paper.Signed in the lower left corner. It has a signature anagram in the lower right corner.Size: 13 x 15.5 cm; 40 x 42.5 cm (frame).This work was reproduced in issue number 516 of the Catalan magazine Auba, published from 1901 to 1902. The image shows, inside a cartridge, the initials O. R in reference to Octavi de Romeu, one of the pseudonyms used by Eugenio d'Ors to sign some of his drawings, such as those published in Gaseta d'art between 1904-1905, and for his writings, which became a literary character with his own identity and the artist's alter ego. As for the image of Charlotte Rower, sometimes called Charlotte Rower, there is a clear influence of modernism and specifically of the artist Toulouse Lautrec, especially in the conception of the main character's dress and the movement of her legs.Born in Barcelona in 1882, Eugenio d'Ors started out in modernist literary circles. In his youth, between the ages of nineteen and twenty-five, he participated in this aesthetic. He studied law in Barcelona and took his doctorate in Madrid. From 1906 onwards he contributed to La Veu de Catalunya and was a member of the Catalan Noucentisme movement. He was secretary of the Institut d'Estudis Catalans in 1911 and director of the Instrucció Pública de la Mancomunitat de Catalunya in 1917, but left in 1920 after the death of Enric Prat de la Riba. In 1923 he moved to Madrid, where he became a member of the Spanish Royal Academy in 1927. In 1938, during the Spanish Civil War, he was Director General of Fine Arts in the provisional Francoist government in Burgos. He was the father of the famous Spanish jurist, historian and political theorist Álvaro d'Ors, and grandfather of Juan d'Ors.
