Bilbao (Spain), 1875 - Madrid (Spain), 1931
See author's fileEchevarría was inspired by the rural heritage of Spain’s gypsy people in the early decades of the 20th century, finding alternative themes and subjects to those of the urban, bourgeois culture inherited from the 19th century. Executed in a geometrical idiom with bright, random colours, this canvas reveals the artist’s complete assimilation of the European Post-impressionist models which he had studied in Paris.
