Enrique Montés (1958) - La Table du Vigneron

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas.

- In this Enrique Montés basket there is the round plenitude of a land that has distilled all the sun of summer 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 with a nearly sacred dignity— to offer us the ultimate harvest offering: tight 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 Vertumnus, the Roman god of fruits and the changes of light, which manifests in this corner of the cellar justo when the air begins to cool and the last heat of September shatters against the walls. There is something miraculous in the promise contained in each fruit; Montés’s painting not only immortalizes the engorged flesh of the grape, but already glimpses the future heartbeat of the wine, that dark and noble liquor waiting dormant in the wood to return to us, sip by sip, the fleeting grace of the harvest.

- Dimensions of the image without frame: 71 x 52 cm / 91 x 72 cm with exclusive custom frame.

At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and unrepeatable. 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 history 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 irrepeatable piece, an investment in creativity and talent which, over time, will preserve its artistic and emotional value.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a single piece in the world, with no replica whatsoever, and a showcase of 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 indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free circulation internationally.

Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique and irrepeatable 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 attests that the acquired work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin and conservation status. The Certificate of Guarantee includes full details about the piece, such as the author, creation date, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certificate of Guarantee will be issued at 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 trust of our clients, so any doubts 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 art logistics experts, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches 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 costs prices shown in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include variations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, and possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fluctuations in fuel costs or adjustments in customs and import tariffs. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed beforehand before proceeding with shipping. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the work arrives at its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises.

The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or the seller, so it is not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided at no extra cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be exhibited immediately on your wall. Accordingly, damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will not be accepted as a valid reason to file a claim or request a cancellation.
