AGUSTÍN REDONDELA (Madrid, 1922)."Montiel".Watercolour on paper.Signed in the lower right corner. Titled in the centre.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 70s between London and Madrid.Measurements: 17 x 24 cm; 52 x 43 cm (frame).Agustín Redondela captures in this canvas a scene of sober chromatism, expressive and contained at the same time, of sketchy and forceful forms, where the volumes are constructed on the basis of planes, defined and almost cézannian profiles and a fluid, changing and very nuanced colour, which determines a cold and clear atmosphere. The space is organised in two planes, with the group of characters in the first, in front of the monolithic houses, and in the background the mountain range that rises like a wall enclosing the space, its rounded peaks outlined against a leaden sky of almost white blue tones.A mainly self-taught painter, considered one of the most original Spanish landscape painters of the 20th century, Agustín González Alonso trained with his father, the painter and scenographer José González "Redondela". After the Civil War he attended classes at the Madrid School of Arts and Crafts with the landscape painter José Ordoñez, and in 1945 he sent a painting to the National Exhibition of Fine Arts for the first time, signed with the pseudonym Redondela. That same year he held his first personal exhibition at the Estilo gallery in Madrid. It was at this time that he came into contact with the Madrid School, and in 1947 he was selected to exhibit at the Salón de los Once de la Academia Breve e Crítica de Arte de Eugenio d'Ors. In the fifties Redondela won a grant from the Catherword Foundation in Philadelphia (1954), the National Painting Prize (1953) and the first medal at the National Exhibition (1957). Throughout his career he combined painting with stage design, working for plays by Jacinto Benavente, Joaquín Calvo Sotelo, Dodie Smith and Peter Ustinov, among others. He also did some work as an illustrator, including a luxurious edition of Cela's "Viaje a la Alcarria" in 1978. In 1996 the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando awarded him the José González de la Peña prize, and two years later the Centro Cultural de la Villa de Madrid dedicated an important anthological exhibition to him. He is currently represented in the Museum of Fine Arts in La Coruña, the Museum of Contemporary Spanish Landscape in Priego de Córdoba, the Museum of Fine Arts in Bilbao, the Camón Aznar Museum in Zaragoza, the museums of Buenos Aires, Caracas and Havana and the Oswaldo Guayasamín House-Museum in Quito, among other public and private collections.

ABRAHAM LACALLE (Almería, 1962).Untitled, 1998.Watercolour, Indian ink and pen on paper.With sticker of the Galería Fúcares (Madrid) on the back.Signed and dated in the lower right-hand corner.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 70s between London and Madrid.Measurements: 65 x 50 cm; 67 x 52 cm (frame).Abraham Lacalle's painting is usually characterised by a multiplicity of elements, with contrasting tones of colour and shapes that create an apparently chaotic whole. However, in this case he resorts through synthetism to a single hybrid figure between the human and the vegetable. Black and white are used to combine a certain sobriety, but if we go deeper into the work we can appreciate the author's characteristic style. The multiplicity of forms, straight lines, dots, complete colour fields and the use of the biros are examples of this.Abraham Lacalle began his career in the 80's, in 1994 he won the scholarship for artistic promotion of the Casa de Velázquez. In his canvases there are references to great masters such as Duchamp, Picasso, Mondrian or Philip Guston, using a special subjectivity in the treatment of colour. In turn, there are ironic and sarcastic references to the great artistic and literary movements of the 20th century and an acid social criticism. The painter has been exhibiting in ARCO, through different galleries, since 1987 and has been collaborating for years with the Malborough Gallery. Works in collections: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid; Fundación Coca-Cola España; Fundación Luis Cernuda, Seville; Prosegur, Madrid; Fundación Santander Central Hispano; Universidad de Salamanca; Casa de Velázquez, Madrid; Colección Testimonio, Caixa de Pensiones, Barcelona...

HERNANDO VIÑES SOTO, (Paris, 1904 - 1993).Untitled, 1931.Watercolour on paper.Signed and dated in the lower left corner.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 1970s between London and Madrid.Size: 31 x 24 cm; 44 x 52 cm (frame).Born into an upper-class bourgeois family, Viñes was introduced into the Parisian artistic circle by his uncle, the pianist and composer Ricardo Viñes. During the First World War he settled in Madrid, returning to Paris in 1918. There Pablo Picasso, a friend of his uncle's, after seeing his first drawings, advised him to continue along the same path and to perfect his knowledge as a self-taught artist. Viñes followed Picasso's advice, first entering the Academy of Sacred Art in Paris, where he was a pupil of Maurice Denis and Georges Desvallieres and then, in 1922, completing his training with André Lothe and Gino Severini. The following year he participated as a decorator in Manuel de Falla's "El retablo de Maese Pedro" and exhibited for the first time at the Salon d'Automne. That same year, 1923, he came into contact, through his friend Manuel Ángeles Ortiz, with the circle of young Spanish artists living in Paris: Francisco Bores, Luis Buñuel, Joaquín Peinado, Francisco García Lorca, Pancho Cossío, Rafael Alberti, Ismael de la Serna, etc. At the age of twenty he decided to devote himself fully to painting, and immediately obtained the support of two important critics, Tériade and Zervos, the latter being the director of "Cahiers d'Art". From then on he exhibited regularly at the Percier and Max Berger galleries in Paris. After the Second World War a very difficult period began for the painter, in which, despite numerous group and solo exhibitions, he did not achieve the notoriety that his brilliant beginnings had promised. It was not until 1965 and the major retrospective devoted to him by the Madrid Museum of Modern Art that he was finally recognised as one of the most brilliant painters of his generation. From that moment on, exhibitions followed one after the other in leading galleries all over Spain, such as Théo (Madrid and Valencia), Dalmau (Barcelona) and Ruiz (Santander). In the early eighties, important retrospective exhibitions were held at the Casa de España in Paris, the Museum of Fine Arts in Santander and the Bonnat Museum in Bayonne. In 1988 he was awarded the Gold Medal of Arts and Letters by King Juan Carlos I. At the same time, his international fame grew as a result of exhibitions held in Germany, Denmark, the United States, Czechoslovakia, England and Japan. Far from schools and any hint of boastfulness, Viñes's work continued its path in France, and museums all over the world began to acquire his works. He is currently represented in the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, the Georges Pompidou Centre in Paris, the Museums of Albi, Castres and Saint-Ouen in France, the Fine Arts Museums of Tel-Aviv, Buenos Aires and Prague, the Patio Herreriano Contemporary Art Museum in Valladolid and the ARTIUM in Vitoria, among many others.

LUIS FERNÁNDEZ LÓPEZ (Oviedo, 1900- Paris, 1973)."Female Figure", 1939.Watercolour and pencil on paper.It has slight damage to the paper in the corners.There is a slight yellowing in the lower part of the paper.Signed in the lower left corner. Dated in the upper right corner.Provenance: private collection conceived since the 1970s between London and Madrid.Measurements: 65 x 50 cm.The present drawing shows the clear influence of Picasso's work, especially in the torso of the protagonist and in the faceted way in which the artist treats the face. However, Fernández's personality transcends cubism, providing a lyrical and symbolic value of great delicacy. This work is part of an exceptional and unique period of the artist's career in which he approached an aesthetic transition in which the consolidated characteristics of his artistic production can be appreciated, although from a completely new perspective. Influenced by the cruelty of the Civil War, this period shows a greater reflection of violent, tragic and emphatic forms.An Asturian painter belonging to the Parisian avant-garde, Luis Fernández left his homeland when he was only nine years old, after being orphaned. He then moved with his brothers to Madrid, where his maternal grandfather lived. His grandfather died shortly afterwards, however, and Fernández had to move again, this time to Barcelona, to his maternal uncle's house. His maternal uncle made him abandon his studies, and he entered a jewellery workshop as an apprentice at a very young age. However, his artistic vocation had already awakened, and in 1912 he enrolled in the evening classes at the Llotja School. In 1924, when he finished his studies, Fernández went to Paris, where he became part of the Montparnasse artistic milieu while earning his living by working in a printing house. He came into contact with leading figures of the time such as Brancusi, Braque, Ozenfant and Julio González, and also with the avant-garde artistic movements then developing in the heart of Paris. He first experimented along the lines of purism derived from Cubist language, later evolving towards Neo-Plasticism and, finally, Surrealism. Finally, in 1933, he left his job to devote himself fully to painting. During this period he became friends with Picasso, with whom he collaborated on several projects and whose work was to exert a key influence on his aesthetic. However, after a period of experimentation marked by different influences, Fernández found the maturity of his work in a personal and hermetic plastic universe, the result of slow, analytical work that went beyond the formal to delve into the spirit of objects. The result is a work in which each brushstroke, each stroke, is the fruit of profound meditation. However, the scarcity of his output and poor relations with art dealers meant that Fernández's career was far removed from the financial success enjoyed by other artists in Paris at the time. In his last years, however, the critics recovered his work for the public, and in 1972, a year before his death, he was the subject of an important anthological exhibition held at the National Centre of Contemporary Art in Paris. More recently, following the centenary of his birth, successive exhibitions of his work were held in Spain, and Alfonso Palacio, professor of art history at the University of Oviedo, dedicated his doctoral thesis to him, the basis for a future catalogue raisonné of his work. Luis Fernández is currently mainly represented in the Museo de Bellas Artes de Asturias, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, the Patio Herreriano in Valladolid, the Museo de Bellas Artes de Bilbao and the Telefónica Collection, among other important collections.

Spanish school of the last third of the 18th century."Portrait of Guardia de Corps de Carlos IV".Gouache on vellum.Bronze and wood frame, with faults.Measurements: 6,5 cm (vellum diameter); 10 cm (frame diameter).Portrait of an officer of the Guard of Corps of Charles IV, a type of troop of the royal house whose origin goes back to the French "Garde du Corps". It is a delicate miniature painting, a genre that developed in Europe from the 16th century onwards. They were mainly paintings that were embedded in objects such as medallions, table clocks or small boxes. They were executed in a wide variety of techniques, such as oil on copper, tin or ivory, gouaches on parchment or cardboard and, from the 18th century, watercolour on ivory. This delicate art was gradually lost from the second half of the 19th century, in parallel with the development of photography.

FEDERICO BELTRÁN MASSES (Güira de Melena, Cuba, 1885 - Barcelona, 1949)."L'Ile d'amour, Les fleurs du mal".Oil on cardboard.Signed on the lower right.With Artur Ramón Gallery label on the back.Measurements: 28 x 23 cm; 48 x 43 cm (frame).Taking the title from Baudelaire's famous book of poems, Beltrán Masses represents here the lesbian island (the kingdom of Lesbos) of which the French poet speaks. Innocent and jovial Arcadia of tradition is reinvented. As in the cursed poet, the latency of something fateful can be appreciated, as well as the burden of a rich symbolism associated with Eros, making pleasure and transgression inseparable. Fauvism, Matisse, the Nabis... are some of the references that are stirred in the cocktail of this painter, capable of creating his own style.Beltrán Masses, despite his Cuban origin, studied art in Spain. He began his training at the Escuela de La Llotja in Barcelona, and was a disciple of Joaquín Sorolla. In 1905 he moved to Madrid to study at first hand the works of the masters in the Prado Museum. In 1916 he settled in Paris, where he achieved great commercial success, receiving commissions from illustrious figures in the United States, Belgium, Italy and India. He was a member of the Royal Academies of Madrid, Barcelona, Saragossa, Lisbon, Cordoba and Malaga. He was also a member of the Hispanic Society of New York, the Institut de France, the Paris Academy of Fine Arts, a knight of the Order of Malta and the French Legion of Honour, and general curator of the Bordeaux International Art Exhibition of 1928. He took part in numerous exhibitions and shows, such as the one held at the Sala Parés in Barcelona in 1910, the Hispano-French Fine Arts Exhibition in Paris in 1919 and the Venice Biennale in 1921. In 1924 he was awarded the Cordon de Isabel la Católica, and in 1934 he exhibited his works at the Royal Watercolour Society in London. Among his official commissions is the portrait he painted of King Alfonso XIII. In 2007 a retrospective exhibition of Federico Beltrán Masses was held at the Casa Lis Museum of Art Nouveau and Art Deco. Beltrán Masses devoted himself to both landscape and figure painting, although towards the end of his career he focused fully on portraiture. Works by Beltrán Masses are currently held in the Prado Museum, the Jeu de Paume Museum in Paris, the Casa Lis Museum in Salamanca and the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid.

AFTER GEORGE FREDERIC WATTS OM RA (1817-1904), A watercolour portrait of Sir Edward Sabine (1788-1883), Irish astronomer, geophysicist, ornithologist, explorer, soldier and the 30th President of the Royal Society.Old paper label to verso dates 'Watts 1874'. Purchased in 1982, with original receipt from 'Geoffrey Rose Ltd'. 76cm x 57cm (incl. frame) Edward Sabine travelled with Commander John Ross in the ill-fated 1818 Arctic expedition to discover the North West passage into the Pacific Ocean. He also returned to the Arctic on the Parry Expedition the following year in 1819. He led the effort to establish a system of magnetic observatories in various parts of British territory all over the globe. Much of his life was devoted to their direction, and to analyzing their observations. Other research focused on the birds of Greenland, ocean temperatures, the Gulf Stream, barometric measurement of heights, arc of the meridian, glacial transport of rocks, the volcanoes of the Hawaiian Islands, and various points of meteorology.It is believed that this is a copy of the original oil painting of Sir Edward Sabine, in the Royal Artillery Mess, Woolwich. This may have been painted by an admiring officer. In this period the ability to sketch a terrain, rapidly and accurately, could prove very important in a military operation, and officers were often given artistic instruction as part of their training, and this would have focussed on drawing and watercolour rather than oil paint.
