Josep Baquès (1931-2021) - Hommage à la Renaissance

- Color lithography. Edition 43/150. Hand-signed. Includes publisher's certificate.

- Josep Baqués was not only a designer, but the architect of an imaginary world where rigorous graphics and the freedom of surrealism converge in a dance of visual seduction. Self-taught by destiny and a master in his own right, his genius was so precocious that the Escola Massana named him professor even before there was an official chair in his discipline, yielding to a talent that already captivated major international firms.

Awarded the Silver Delta and Laus, Baqués' work is a living treatise on absolute harmony; a mystical balance where texture, chromatics, and fantasy fuse to give voice to dreamlike characters that inhabit that boundary where "nothing is true and nothing is false." In his universe, creativity knows no limits if the result is beauty, elevating visual communication to the category of metaphysical poetry.

In Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original, and unrepeatable. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision, and masterful technique—qualities that guarantee its authenticity. The works we sell are not industrial reproductions; they are pieces created individually by recognized artists, each with its own story and essence. Originality is the basis of our commitment to excellence, and therefore every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity. Acquiring a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning an unreproducible piece, an investment in creativity and talent that, over time, will retain its artistic and emotional value. We take pride in offering works that not only beautify spaces but also connect our clients with the richness of human expression through the most authentic art. Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a unique piece in the world, with no replicas, and a testimony to the innovation and passion of the artists we work with.

Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. While this is an administrative procedure, it is indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free circulation internationally.

Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique, and irreproducible artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of every piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every acquisition, we offer a digital Certificate of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate certifies that the acquired work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify authorship, origin, and condition. The Certificate of Guarantee includes full details about the piece, such as author, date of creation, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certificate of Guarantee will be issued at the client’s request, providing an official reference for the piece purchased. This document will be delivered in digital format and will be signed by a gallery art historian, ensuring its validity and backing.

We are committed to client satisfaction and confidence, so any questions about authenticity or condition of the work will be addressed professionally and promptly. To request your Certificate of Guarantee, please contact us through our usual channels.

As experts in art logistics, Montbaron Gallery is committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible condition. To that end, we work with a network of professionals specialized in art transport, guaranteeing maximum care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to change depending on various circumstances. These include variations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fluctuations in fuel costs or adjustments in customs and import tariffs. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before shipment proceeds. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the work arrives quickly and safely, with no surprises.

The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or the seller, and therefore is not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided at no additional cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be displayed on your wall immediately. Consequently, frame damages that do not affect the integrity of the work will not be accepted as a valid reason to file a claim or request a cancellation.
