European School (c. 1960) - The Blue Notebook

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Signed.

- This mid-20th-century still life is a masterful exercise in the aesthetics of the minimum, where formal restraint and sober composition rise to a spiritual level. In postwar Spain, many artists embraced this economy of means, moving away from decorative excess to seek the essence of things in everyday life.

- Image dimensions without frame: 70 x 58 cm / 82 x 70 cm with exclusive, custom-made frame.

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and irreplaceable. 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 cornerstone of our commitment to excellence, and therefore every painting or sculpture that forms part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity. Acquiring a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning an irreplaceable piece, an investment in creativity and talent that, over time, will preserve its value both artistically and emotionally.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a one-of-a-kind piece in the world, with no replicas, and a proof of 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. Although this is an administrative procedure, it is essential to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free circulation internationally.

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

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

As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we commit 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, who guarantee the utmost care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include variations in transport market rates, changes in the delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances such as fluctuations in fuel costs or adjustments to duties and import rates. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before proceeding with shipment. Our aim is to offer the best possible service, adapting to the needs of each client and ensuring the artwork 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 by the seller, and 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 immediately on your wall. Accordingly, damages to the frame 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.
