Description from the seller

MIQUEL TORNER DE SEMIR (1938) – FIGURATIVE COMPOSITION WITH FEMALE FIGURES

Interesting work by Miquel Torner de Semir, a Catalan painter with a well-known career, characterized by a personal figurative language in which classical tradition and contemporary sensitivity coexist.

The composition presents several female figures in a scene of great chromatic richness and expressiveness. The central figure stands out, with an stylized face and direct gaze, surrounded by other figures that create an interesting game of perspectives and visual relationships.

The work combines a drawing with pronounced contours with a free and spontaneous brushstroke. The intense reds, blues, violets and earth tones give depth and personality to the composition, creating an atmosphere of poetic and expressionist character.
