Description from the seller
Miquel Brunet Majorcan School 20th Century - "Classic Female Nude: Stylized Bust Study" - Sanguine and Charcoal on Paper
This magnificent original work on paper is signed by master Miquel Brunet Maimó (1919-2007), one of the foremost exponents and renewers of Balearic painting and drawing in the 20th century, awarded the Ramon Llull Prize by the Government of the Balearic Islands. The piece consists of a delicate study of a female nude bust, a favored subject within his graphic production where the author distances himself from traditional academicism to delve into a stylized figurative style with a modern feel and clean lines. The expressive force and the intrinsic elegance of this work make it a highly collectible piece within the Mallorca School art market.
Executed on a 40 x 30 centimeter format, the drawing stands out for its superb command of mixed dry techniques. Brunet builds the volume of the torso and features of the face through an intelligent network of charcoal lines and graphite pencil, complemented by the warmth of sanguine that adds texture and life to the skin. A subtle turquoise pastel shading in the background outlines the silhouette of the model, producing a magnificent three-dimensional chromatic contrast. The stroke is firm yet endowed with restrained lyricism, and the autograph signature "Brunet" blends naturally into the lower right corner of the composition.
Miquel Brunet’s works on paper enjoy steady demand and undeniable historic prestige in national galleries and auctions. Its timeless aesthetic and refined visual balance make this original nude an ideal element for contemporary interior design projects, high-end decoration, or private collections of modern art. As a unique piece signed by an author of museums, it represents a safe-haven value and a secure investment with excellent liquidity and high commercial turnover potential in the European market.
