​- Description of the work:
​Exceptional work by the renowned Vigo master José (Xosé Telmo) Lodeiro, a fundamental figure of the vanguard and the renewal of Galician art in the 20th century (historic member of the Atlántica movement).
The piece is a breathtaking study of light and color captured by the artist facing the sea at the Samil promenade: a vibrant sunset over the Vigo estuary with the silhouette of the Cíes Islands on the horizon.
- Lodeiro synthesizes the Atlantic landscape into horizontal bands of strong emotional density, confronting the deep blues of the estuary with a top band lit in reds and oranges like fire.
Key authenticity and provenance points:
- The back of the frame still preserves the original period sealing paper and contains a handwritten dedication signed by the painter himself:
"Para Óscar y Teresa, e hijos, con cariño y José Lodeiro"
This dedication and the artist’s handwritten signature not only confirm the unquestionable authorship of the work, but also grant it a direct provenance from a private collection, fully guaranteeing the buyer.
A museum piece, with a Galician identity stamp and an impeccable historical-artistic value. Ready to hang and display.
