- Description of the work:
Exceptional work by the renowned Vigo-born 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 mesmerizing 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 upper band blazing in reds and oranges of fire.
Key point of authenticity and provenance:
- The back of the frame preserves the original period sealing paper and contains a handwritten dedication signed by the painter himself:
"To Óscar and Teresa, and children, with affection, José Lodeiro"
This dedication and the artist’s handwritten signature not only certify the indisputable authorship of the work, but also grant it a direct provenance from a private collection, of total guarantee for the buyer.
A museum piece, with a Galician identity stamp and impeccable historical-artistic value. Ready to hang and display.
