Description from the seller
Cortés Ruiz (20th century)
Landscape
Oil on canvas by the painter Cortés Ruiz, active in the 20th century, depicting a rural landscape treated with loose and expressive brushwork, clearly linked to the Spanish Post-Impressionist tradition.
The composition is structured around a path that guides the eye toward the background, creating depth and dynamism in the scene. The vibrant treatment of the vegetation stands out, achieved through impasto and overlapped color touches, as well as the use of a rich palette of greens, ochres, earth tones, and soft blues, which conveys a luminous and natural atmosphere.
The artist demonstrates a notable mastery of color and the painting medium, prioritizing mood and the capture of the atmosphere over meticulous detail. The brushstroke is energetic and free, especially visible in the mass of trees and in the foreground, lending the work character and strength.
The painting is presented on canvas and is signed, representing a representative piece of 20th-century Spanish landscape painting, ideal for both collectors and for those seeking a work with strong decorative value and high pictorial quality.
