Description from the seller
“Bilbao Estuary”, Julio Pérez Torres, Contemporary Art, 60s – Bilbao, Spain
Exceptional coastal landscape titled “Bilbao Estuary”, a work by Julio Pérez Torres (Madrid, 1901–2001), a renowned Spanish painter specializing in landscapes, particularly coastal areas, who was active for almost the entire 20th century. He was a very prolific artist and worked mainly in oil on canvas, depicting landscapes (ports, estuaries, views of cities such as Toledo, Bilbao, or Segovia…), although he also excelled in still lifes.
His work continues to be appreciated in today’s Spanish 20th-century art market, especially among collectors of coastal and urban landscapes. He was not part of the avant-garde, remaining within an accessible figurative style that combines tradition with the evocation of familiar, nostalgic settings.
The spirit of this painting lies in the great mastery with which the landscape is rendered through broad brushstrokes, without preliminary drawing. His brushwork tends to be loose and evocative, with a realistic approach softened by a nostalgic, classical air, and a particular focus on the coastal atmosphere. It is nature as it is, yet re-created and translated through a sensibility saturated with lyricism. The artist is generally notable for his restrained technique, which succeeds in capturing tranquil and sometimes melancholic atmospheres.
