THE WORK:
Juego de Pelota is an original etching with aquatint, made from three independent zinc plates. This artist's proof (P/A) is part of a limited edition and was printed in the artist's own workshop on high-quality ivory-tone etching paper.
Surreal in nature, the work features two winged lions facing each other in an imaginary setting that evokes a playing field. On the central plate, a sphere suggests the ball, rising above a geometric space with pennants and lines that structure the scene.
A provocative and symbolic piece that explores play, tension, and interaction.

Seller's Story

Juan Álvarez Cebrián, a Spanish painter with a long career. His work is based on figurative and realist styles and also touches on abstract art. He currently lives and works on the outskirts of Madrid. A passionate advocate of drawing. His themes are varied; he does not like to be pigeonholed into a single subject. He works with the figure, landscape, nature subjects, even surrealism. A staunch defender of good technique in art, he has studied the great masters and, for that reason, was a copyist of works at the Prado Museum in Madrid for a few years.
