Description of the work

Impressive large-format oil painting by the prestigious Spanish painter Ignacio Gil Sala, an undisputed master of Mediterranean light.
The work depicts a typical painted street of Ibiza, with the blue sea in the background and a group of children playing: one of the artist's most sought-after and highly valued themes.

The brushstroke is loose, vibrant, and full of life; the solar whites, intense blues, and pink touches create a luminous and deeply evocative atmosphere. The composition is masterfully resolved: a perfect balance between architecture, figures, and landscape.

These types of Ibizan scenes are highly sought after by international collectors, especially in Spain, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Due to their size, quality, light, and theme, they are among those works that rarely appear at auction.

Ideal piece for lovers of Mediterranean art, Spanish luminists, and collectors of summer scenes.
