Vives Maristany (XX) - Nanny

- Oil on cardboard. Hand-signed.

- What can you do, if the morning turned out clear and the Mediterranean is determined to wet their feet. There they are, going down to the water’s edge with that air of importance that comes from never having broken a plate, guarded by an Oxfordshire nanny who watches that the wind doesn’t muss their fringe or disorder their soul. They stroll as if the world were a freshly waxed ballroom, but the beach doesn’t understand titles and the sea is a democrat who knows nothing of surnames. So, between game and game, the immaculate lace and silk bows end up yielding, defeated by the obvious stain of tar and a handful of damp sand. They are remnants of the wreckage of a perfect Sunday, where luxury gets salt-stained while they learn, unknowingly, that the waves discriminate against no one and that happiness, at times, has the color of the mud sticking to patent leather shoes.

- Image dimensions without frame: 30 x 20 cm / 40 x 30 cm with exclusive custom frame.

In Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and one-of-a-kind. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision and masterful technique, characteristics 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 foundation of our commitment to excellence and, therefore, every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its uniqueness. Acquiring a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning an irreproachable piece, an investment in creativity and talent that, over time, will preserve its artistic and emotional value.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a unique piece in the world, with no replicas, and a testament to the innovation and passion of the artists we work with.

Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit issued 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 irreproachable works of art, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each 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 confirms 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, 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 piece purchased. 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 our clients’ satisfaction and confidence, 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 are committed to ensuring that each piece arrives at 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 change depending on various circumstances, including fluctuations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances such as fuel cost fluctuations 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 beforehand before proceeding with shipment. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the work reaches its destination 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 therefore 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. Consequently, no damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will be accepted as valid grounds for opening a claim or requesting a cancellation.
