"Landscape".
Oil on canvas. Re-drawn.
It presents restorations.
Measurements: 93 x 144 cm.
In this landscape the artist presents the spectator with a whole display of visual resources, concentrating numerous disciplines in a single scene. The left area of the composition shows us a detailed relief of classical inspiration, located on a monument that forms part of a fountain. The centre is divided by the presence of a leafless tree, whose attraction is centred on the two birds perched on it. The right-hand side, dominated by the presence of a river, shows more luxuriant vegetation and finally, in the distance, a church-like building and a mountain can be seen.
The aesthetics and technical characteristics indicate that it is probably a work belonging to the Italian or Mallorcan school. The Mallorcan school of still lifes shows a strong influence of the Valencian and therefore Italian school, although it had its own personality and must have enjoyed a certain importance, given the number of works that have survived to the present day. It developed mainly from the end of the 17th century and during the 18th century, with the appearance of the figure of Guillermo Mesquida (1625-1747), who raised the level of Mallorcan painting. He was the most famous painter of the Balearic Baroque and the absolute dominator of the artistic panorama between the end of the 17th century and the first half of the 18th century. He was an excellent painter of still lifes, although we do not have a single one of them today that we can attribute to him with absolute certainty. His biographers indicate that he was a pupil in Rome of the Italian Carlos Marata, a painter who had a great influence on the development of still life painting, as he collaborated with numerous specialists in this genre.
