Oil on board painting by Helios Gisbert (born 1948), titled Los músicos ambulantes, a Spanish post-impressionist figurative work from 1990–2000, depicting a daytime scene with two figures, 32 by 32 cm, signed, original edition, sold with frame.
Description from the seller
Oil on board by the Spanish painter Helios Gisbert, a contemporary artist whose work is situated within a figurative language rooted in post-Impressionism, characterized by the importance of color, visible brushwork, and formal synthesis.
The composition depicts a genre scene with two figures dressed in traditional attire, treated with loose and direct brushwork that prioritizes sensation and visual rhythm over descriptive detail. The artist builds the figures through patches of color well balanced, achieving a lively and dynamic scene, full of movement and naturalness.
The use of color is one of the work’s most striking elements: pink tones, ochres, greens, and earth tones are combined with skill to structure the scene and give it depth, in a clear inheritance from post-Impressionism, where color takes on a constructive and expressive value within a recognizable figuration.
Helios Gisbert (1948) develops a painting that draws from post-Impressionism and modern figuration, always maintaining a clear reading of the subject and a high decorative value. His work is especially appealing for its balance between tradition and modernity, as well as for the freshness and confidence of his execution.
A piece of notable pictorial quality, highly representative of the artist’s language, ideal for collectors of contemporary painting and for those who value carefully crafted post-Impressionist figuration.
