Aiguablava
1917. Oil on canvas.Not on display
A view of the rocky cliffs of Aiguablava, painted from nature and probably over the course of numerous sessions. Gimeno executed this powerfully expressive work during the period he spent painting landscapes around Begur on the Costa Brava, particularly in Fornells, in the summer of 1917. This was one of the artist’s most mature, productive periods in which his simultaneously energetic and lyrical technique broke down the traditional structure of the landscape through planes that create pictorial Depth.
