Una barca de vela izada permanece en la orilla junto a un grupo de personas. La pincelada briosa y muy empastada, observable a simple vista, delata que el cuadro se trata de un apunte rápido, tomado del natural. La importancia concedida a la luz, aventura un tipo de pintura que se anticipa al luminismo de Sorolla.
On his deathbed, King James I of Aragon gives his sword to his son, begging him not to sheath it until the Muslims have been totally expulsed and the Reconquista completed. In this work, Pinazo presents a subject directly related to his homeland of Valencia, where this abdication took place. The painting was made to be sent to the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in 1881 after the success of an ea
Pinazo’s fascination with childhood led him to paint several pictures of his two children, in which he captured the freshness and spontaneity of the child’s world. Here, his son Ignacio, the artist’s favourite model, who would later become a sculptor.
A front view of a girl with a tambourine in her left hand. She holds a doll with her right arm. In keeping with his interest in children´s portraits, Pinazo captures a very familiar atmosphere here, making a very intimate portrait. The color scheme tends toward greys and blues, avoiding the brownish tones so frequent in many of his child portraits. This work is notable for various aspects that den
Ignacio Pinazo’s fondness of childhood scenes led him to make frequent sketches -both drawings and oils- of his two sons, José and Ignacio. The younger child, Ignacio, was especially handsome and his delicate features, curly brunette hair and expressiveness especially attracted the painter’s attention. He therefore appears in numerous works, many of which are now at the Museo del Prado. Her
A young man lies face down on the earth, crowned with grape leaves in the fashion of the god, Bacchus. This mythological touch, which Pinazo developed in part of his oeuvre, shows the influence of his time in Italy. This nude also clearly shows how important light was in many of this artist´s works. here it can be seen in the reverberant effect of the white cloth that cover´s the model´s legs. Thi
As on many other occasions, the painter´s sons are his model for this work. In a barely-furnished room, the two brothers have fun together. José, the elder, leans on the table, drawing, while Ignacio fondly rests his hand on his older brother´s back, observing the progress. This scene is an example of the sort of intimate and familiar painting this artist made throughout his life. Of partic
Pinazo captured the essence of childhood on numerous occasions, but here he proves more ambitions. With the inquisitive and profound gaze of his son, he manages to capture the intelligence and curiosity of a child on the edge of adolescence who has still not abandoned the innocence of childhood. This work was acquired for the Museum of Modern Art in 1957, along with other works by the same artist.
This portrait of a nude young woman sitting in an armchair with her clothing falling to her feet and a certain gesture of modesty betrays the artist´s satisfaction with the subject of nudes and the sensuality of the female body. The coloring tends towards reds and yellows and is one of the singular elements of this nude, which is one of several painted by Pinazo. Here, the amount of paint seems to
Desnudo de mujer es uno de los desnudos más atrevidos y eróticos que realizó el artista. La mujer aparece tendida, con las piernas hacia el espectador y los brazos detrás de la cabeza. La imagen frontal de los desnudos recostados, que tenía su más claro exponente en la obra de Goya, ha sido llevada hacia un atrevido escorzo que coloca el sexo en el primer plano de la composición; una posición carg
Obsessed by his own image, Pinazo made many self-portraits. Here, the intense light streaming in from the left outlines his face with a marked chiaroscuro, heightened by the shadow cast by the hat. The use of a range of browns, and the highly naturalistic treatment of light reveal the influence of the masters of the Spanish Golden Age.
A more than half-length image of a young woman in profile, holding up a basket or tray of flowers. This genre subject was very frequent in Pinazo, and here it is joined by the pictorial tradition of floral offereings, which have been common in modern painting since the Renaissance. The technique, however, corresponds to a much more modern concept of painting, with a loose and relaxed application o
A portrait of Ignacio, the artist´s youngest son and one of his favorite models, shown here at the age of eleven. The profusion of child portraits by Pinazo is based on his capacity to capture the freshness and spontaneity of children´s acts, making works of great intimacy and closeness. This portrait may be one of the painter´s finest and it reveals his most personal characteristics. The dark ton
Pinazo, an artist obsessed with his own image, painted numerous self-portraits, some showing him with a hat. In these works, he rendered his expressive facial features with naturalist exactitude against very sober backgrounds. The gaze of the eye in the lighted half of the face here reflects his efforts to capture the image directly and precisely, something his ample brushwork accomplishes with as
In 1899, Pinazo performed the first studies from life for the portrait Alfonso XIII as a cadet, commissioned by the captain of the Valencian military after he was awarded the medal in that same year. The painting is signed and dated 1901. In this work, the painter combines the scenography of royalty – which is especially visible in the sumptuous palace setting – with the nearly frail image of an a
The nude young woman sits on a white cloth with which she covers her lap. The artist paints her in profile and avoids showing her face. This is one of many nude studies made by this artist, and it may well be the most lauded of them all. Several of its characteristic aspects have been praised for their exquisite mastery, including the rich palette —especially the greens, which vary rhythmically— t
