GONZALO BILBAO MARTÍNEZ (Seville, 1860 - Madrid, 1938)."Flower vase".Oil on canvas. Relined.Presents craquelure and lifting of the pictorial layer.Attached certificate issued by Dr. Gerardo Pérez Calero.Needs restoration.Signed in the lower right corner.Measurements: 81 x 46 cm.Scene that has as protagonist a vase with flowers where the loose and sketchy brushstroke is combined with a masterful treatment of the light, very thought and studied, that models the volumes reinforcing the three-dimensional sensation. Everything in the composition is rational, balanced and symmetrical except for the flowers themselves, which are arranged randomly.Gonzalo Bilbao started drawing as a child and in 1880 he began his pictorial career. During these years he made a trip to Italy and France with Jiménez de Aranda. In Rome he worked with the painter José Villegas Cordero, and traveled through the different Italian capitals, painting urban and rural views until his return to Spain in 1884. In the following years he visited Rome again, traveled through Spain and also went to Morocco, Paris and Munich. In Spain he worked as a professor of painting, at first as a private individual and, from 1903, as successor to Jiménez de Aranda at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Santa Isabel de Hungría in Seville. In 1904 he married and took up residence in Madrid, where he continued his teaching work at the San Fernando Academy. During his career he participated in numerous exhibitions of fine arts, both national and foreign, being awarded a third medal at the Universal Exhibition of Paris (1889) and the International Exhibition of Barcelona (1891), a single medal at the Universal Exhibition of Chicago (1893), and a gold medal at the International Exhibitions of Berlin (1899), Munich (1905), Buenos Aires (1910), Santiago de Chile (1910), San Francisco (1915) and Panama (1916). He also participated in the National Fine Arts, obtaining second medal in 1887 and 1892, first in 1899 and 1901 and honor in 1915. A traditional painter, representative of Spanish costumbrismo, he expressed in his paintings colorful pictures of Andalusian life and its most popular characters, and also practiced the landscape, the figure and the portrait, painting prominent figures of the time as King Alfonso XIII and the actress Carmen Diaz. The light and vitality of his compositions bring his language closer to impressionist aesthetics, focusing on the essential representation of environments and landscapes. Gonzalo Bilbao is represented in the Museum of Fine Arts in Seville, where he has a room entirely dedicated to his work, the Prado Museum, the Jaume Morera Museum in Lleida and the Museum of Fine Arts in Cordoba, among others, as well as in private collections both in Spain and abroad.

GONZALO BILBAO MARTÍNEZ (Seville, 1860 - Madrid, 1938).Untitled.Oil on canvasIt has slight losses on the paint layer and craquelure.Attached certificate issued by Don Gerardo Pérez Calero.Signed in the lower left corner.Measurements: 66,5 x 85 cm.Landscape composed by an architectural group located on a mound. According to Pérez Calero, it could be an old hermitage, or monastery that seems abandoned and of which stands out in a side what should be a sort of chapel with a semicircular arch, near the cemetery, from where a cypress tree can be seen. It is surrounded by a palisade closing the perimeter to which it is acceded by a rustic wooden door. Intramurals, a thing that could belong to the domestic complex, as well as some trees. The piece reflects solitude and silence, tinged by the absence of human presence.Gonzalo Bilbao started drawing as a child and in 1880 he began his pictorial career.

AUGUSTE CHAIX (France, 1860 - 1922)."River landscape".Oil on canvas.Signed in the lower right area.Measurements: 38 x 61cm.; 56 x 79cm. (frame).Auguste Chaix is an artist active in France in the last quarter of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th. In direct contact with the avant-garde, his painting assumes many of the objectives and contributions of impressionism. In his work, battle scenes and portraits of soldiers, on the one hand, and landscape, on the other, are of fundamental importance. Landscape became a genre of great importance in French painting after Romanticism and Realism, and it is, in fact, where some of the main innovations of avant-garde art are embodied. Impressionism was interested in plein air painting and atmospheric capture, and post-impressionism would add a new use of color and brushstroke. The work we now present is nourished, above all, by the impressionist contributions. The artist offers us a view of a wild landscape, with the architectural elements camouflaged among the bushes. The pond in the foreground absorbs a rich chromatic range of ochre, sienna and earth from the lower plane. The brushstroke is undone and not very draftsmanlike, material and impastoed, and the painter is interested in capturing the effects of light. The whitish light of an overcast sky predominates, although it clears up in small areas, revealing a sky of intense blue, which feeds the play of contrasts.
