AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Juan Lluna Lerma (Godella, Valencia, 1933 – 2019)
Afternoon sun, Cuenca
Oil on canvas. Valencian / Mediterranean school of the 20th century.
Measurements: 38 × 46 cm.
Signed.
Work without a frame
Urban landscape of Cuenca depicted from an elevated perspective, where the architecture silhouettes against the steep rocky profile characteristic of the city. The scene captures a moment of evening light, with a serene and warm atmosphere enveloping the scene, fully justifying the title of the work.
The composition is structured through the contrast between the hamlet suspended over the cliff and the natural mass of the terrain, resolved with a loose and textured brushstroke. The ochre, greenish, and earthy tones are combined with pinkish and soft gray shades in the sky, achieving a chromatic balance that enhances the sense of depth and distance.
The work is a full representation of Juan Lluna Lerma's pictorial language, characterized by his luminist sensitivity and his free interpretation of the landscape, inheriting from 20th-century Mediterranean Impressionism. The artist does not seek detailed description but rather an atmospheric evocation of the place, where light and chromatic nuance take on a leading role.
A painting of notable pictorial quality that combines landscape and architecture with a personal and contemporary perspective, reflecting the author's interest in sites of strong historical and visual character.
