AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Carlos Bécquer Domínguez (1889–1968) – “Faisanes” (Pheasants)
Original watercolor on paper, signed by hand in the lower left. Circa 1950.
Two male pheasants, rendered with quick, confident brushstrokes: their deep red heads and green-black necks contrast with the warm brown, purple, and ochre of their plumage. The neutral background lets the birds speak for themselves. A lively, distinctive work by this Catalan painter, who was known for his animal studies.
Carlos Bécquer Domínguez (Barcelona, 1889–1968) was a painter, illustrator, and poster artist, and a member of the family of the poet Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. Among other works, he designed the poster for Barcelona’s Día del Libro (1931). His work is regularly offered by Spanish auction houses.
Provenance: acquired through Barcelona Art Gallery (Barcelona), from a private collection; in a Dutch private collection since then.
Dimensions: 29 × 35 cm (paper); 33 × 39 × 3 cm including frame.
Frame: decorative wooden frame with a green-and-gold marble pattern, behind glass.
Condition: good; paper lightly yellowed, consistent with age. Frame has minor signs of use.
Will be carefully packed and shipped insured.
