JOSEP ROCA SASTRE (Terrassa, 1928 - Barcelona, 1997). "From Lucas Cranach, 1953. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner. Signed, titled and dated on the back. With Oriol Galeria d'Art label on the back. Measurements: 100 x 80 cm; 105 x 86 cm (frame). The one now being auctioned is an early work of the painter Josep Roca Sastre, corresponding to a stage prior to the realization of his intimate interior scenes. The canvas is a metaphysical version of the work "The Three Graces" by Lucas Cranach the Elder, a panel painted by the master in 1531 and now kept in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Trained in Barcelona, in the sixties Roca began to develop a personal, independent style and created his own language. His proposal focused on recovering the look of the close and the everyday, the familiar. He exhibited for forty years in the Sala Parés in Barcelona, and also showed his work in other Spanish cities, as well as in the United States. In 1966 he was awarded the Sant Jordi prize by the Diputació de Barcelona, and two years later the medal of honor at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris. In 1980 he became a member of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi, and in 1993 he was awarded the Quadern Prize of the Fundació Amics de les Arts i de les Lletres de Sabadell. Roca Sastre developed a figurative style of intimate themes, applying a personal and subjective look to his interior scenes as well as to his urban and natural landscapes. Since his death, retrospectives of Josep Roca's work have been held at La Pedrera and the Muncunill (Terrassa), Oriol (Barcelona) and Juan Oliver Maneu (Palma de Mallorca) galleries. His work is preserved in the National Museum of Art of Catalonia.

DIONÍS BAIXERAS VERDAGUER (Barcelona, 1862 - 1943). "Mending nets". Charcoal on paper. Signed in the lower right corner. Measurements: 63 x 49 cm; 69 x 54 cm (frame). Disciple in the School of the Fish market of Martí Alsina and, mainly, of Antonio Caba, during his years of student Baixeras received the nickname of "the medals", due to his facility to win the contests. He exhibited for the first time in 1882, at the Sala Parés in Barcelona, and four years later he traveled to Paris, where he was enthusiastic about the peasant-themed realism of Millet and Bastien-Lepage. During these years he won awards at the Fine Arts Exhibitions of Madrid (1884, third medal) and Paris (1886, honorable mention). Back in Barcelona he made great compositions of historical character, like those of the auditorium of the university (1888), those of the seminary (1904, destroyed in 1936) and those of the dome of the hall of Sant Jordi of the Generalitat (1928). In 1907 he made a series of drawings of documentary type, focused on the representation of the corners of Barcelona that would disappear with the construction of the Via Layetana, which earned him a prize from the City Council. In 1926 he joined the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi, and was linked to the Artistic Circle of Sant Lluc since its foundation. During his last years he wrote some interesting memoirs, the original manuscript of which is currently preserved in the Academy of Sant Jordi. Baixeras devoted himself mainly to naturalistic painting, with marine or rural themes, in works that show a certain influence of the school of Olot. He meticulously elaborated his works in the workshop, so his previous drawings have much more freshness and interest. In 1908 he made a collection of drawings, of great documentary value, of places in old Barcelona that were to disappear during the construction of the Via Layetana. His work is preserved in the Metropolitan of New York, the Museum of Art and Industry of Roubaix (France) and the MACBA, among others. A disciple at the Escuela de la Lonja of Martí Alsina and, above all, of Antonio Caba, during his student years Baixeras was nicknamed "el medallas" (the medal winner), due to his ability to win competitions. He exhibited for the first time in 1882, at the Sala Parés in Barcelona, and four years later he traveled to Paris, where he was enthusiastic about the peasant-themed realism of Millet and Bastien-Lepage.
