AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Title / attribution
Follower of Horacio Lengo (19th century)
Doves among flowers
Description
Oil on canvas. Decorative composition with two doves among flowers and vegetation, following the models of Horacio Lengo Martínez de Baños (1838–1890), painter especially known for his compositions of birds, flowers and ornamental elements.
Signed “H. R. Gonzalvez” and dated “1899” in the lower right corner.
The work presents a vertical composition characteristic of late 19th-century Spanish decorative painting, with two doves in the foreground surrounded by malvas, campanulas and abundant vegetation on a light background. The theme and conception are closely related to the so-called caprices of Horacio Lengo and to the production of his followers and imitators at the end of the 19th century.
Canvas with craquelure, wear and occasional losses of paint layer in line with its age. It is preserved mounted on a frame and framed. The frame is considered a gift, so no claims based on damages to it would be entertained.
Dimensions with frame: 108 × 59 cm.
Technique: oil on canvas.
Date: 1899.
Signature: H. R. Gonzalvez (signature read).
Catalog note
The identity of the painter H. R. Gonzalvez could not be documented with certainty. The attribution as a follower of Horacio Lengo is made by thematic and compositional affinity and does not imply authorship or workshop relation demonstrated.
