NÉSTOR Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 1887-1938 Romantic garden and sculpture. 1918-22 Watercolor on paper Signed Measurements 18 x 18 cm Authenticity confirmed by D. Daniel Montesdeoca We are faced with an unpublished sketch for stained glass, signed by Néstor Martín - Fernández de la Torre around 1918-1922. Its tondo shape, like the accentuated contours of the drawing, refers us to one of the few examples that have survived to this day of these decorative designs for public or private spaces. It is known that Néstor conceived several projects for the famous Maumejean House, of which the template for a pantheon (1925) is a good prototype, which is preserved in its museum.
