European School (XX) - An Only Child

- Oil on canvas.

- They made me wear my favorite striped jersey and sit in that old wooden rocking chair, warning me that if I moved, the painter would have to start from scratch. As the brush brushed the canvas, I squinted my eyes at the infinity of the studio, clutching my worn jeans to contain the urge to run out to play in the garden. Now, forever trapped in this raw beech frame, I watch the strangers looking at me and I smile inwardly, knowing my childish impatience was eternally armored beneath the layers of oil.

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

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and irreproducible. 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 basis 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 irreproducible piece, an investment in creativity and talent that, over time, will retain both 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 whatsoever, and a reflection 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. 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 irreproducible works of art, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each 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 acquired 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 its 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 will be signed by an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and backing.

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 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 this 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 transport 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 to customs and import tariffs. The final shipping cost will be calculated accurately based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before shipment. Our aim is to offer the best possible service, tailored to each client’s needs and ensuring the work reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises.

The frame shown in the above images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, and therefore is 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 exhibited immediately on your wall. Consequently, damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will not be accepted as a valid reason to file a complaint or request a cancellation.
