European School (XX) - An Only Child

- Oil on canvas.

- I was made to put on my favorite striped jersey and sit in that old wooden rocking chair, being warned that if I moved, the painter would have to start from scratch. As the brush brushed the canvas, I kept my gaze from the corner on the studio’s infinity, squeezing my hands into my worn jeans to hold back the urge to run out to the garden to play. Now, forever trapped in this frame of raw maple, I watch the strangers who look at me and smile inside, knowing that my childish impatience was sealed forever beneath the layers of oil.

- Image dimensions without frame: 60 x 50 cm / 78 x 64 cm with a beautiful original frame.

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, 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 for that reason every painting or sculpture that forms part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity. Purchasing a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning an irrepeatable piece, an investment in creativity and talent that, over time, will preserve its artistic and emotional value. We are proud to offer 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 leaving our gallery is a one-of-a-kind piece in the world, with no replicas, and a demonstration of 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. While this is an administrative procedure, it is essential to ensure the artwork’s authenticity and free international circulation.

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

We are committed to our clients’ satisfaction and confidence, so any questions about authenticity or the 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, 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, who guarantee maximum care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices shown in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include variations in transportation 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 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 proceeding with the shipment. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the artwork arrives at 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 thus is not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided to you 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 artwork’s integrity will not be considered valid grounds for opening a claim or requesting a cancellation.
