Enrique Montés (1958) - La Table du Vigneron

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas.

- In this Enrique Montés basket there is the rotund fullness of a land that has distilled all the summer sun to turn it into sugar, pulp and memory. The brush of the Jerez master recovers the highest lesson of the Spanish still life —that sober truth where humble matter clothes itself in a nearly sacred dignity— to offer us the definitive harvest offering: tightly clustered clusters of jet-black dye and translucent grains of gold that seem to still hold the suffocating light of the albariza. It is the secret triumph of Vertumno, the Roman god of fruits and the changes of light, that manifests in this corner of the cellar just as the air begins to cool and the last heats of September break against the walls. There is something miraculous in the promise contained in each fruit; Montés’s painting not only immortally captures the swollen flesh of the grape, but already foresees the future heartbeat of wine, that dark and noble liquor that waits asleep in the wood to return, sip after sip, the fleeting grace of the harvest.
