Jules Rosuero (1921-?) - La Valse de l'Adieu

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Hand-signed.

- Under the pale ash-gray shadow of a devastated hall in Europe in 1946, the woman’s pale fingers crawled over the ivory-yellowed keys of an old Bechstein piano, whose soundboard held the muffled echo of a world that no longer existed. The melancholic notes of Chopin unfurled into a slow, broken waltz, a 3/4 beat that paced the desolation of the rubble and the unbearable weight of absences; every chord suspended in the cold air seemed a delayed goodbye, a lament without tears where the sound, wounded by time and war dust, resignedly died before brushing the rose-patterned walls.

- Image dimensions without frame: 38 x 45 cm / 49 x 56 cm with exclusive custom frame.

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all unique, original, and one-of-a-kind. Each piece in our gallery results from 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 renowned artists, each with its own story and essence.

Thus, we guarantee that every work leaving our gallery is a world-unique piece, with no replica, 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 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 international circulation.

Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering clients original, unique, and one-of-a-kind artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of every piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every purchase, we offer a digital Certification of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate confirms that the acquired work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin, and condition. The Certification of Guarantee includes complete details about the piece, such as its author, creation date, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certification 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 an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and endorsement.

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 Certification of Guarantee, please contact us through our usual channels.

As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are dedicated 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 maximum care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost figures shown in the listing are indicative and subject to change depending on various circumstances. These include 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 always communicated to the client prior to shipment. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, tailor-made to each client’s needs, ensuring the artwork reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises.
