FRANCESC SERRA CASTELLET (Barcelona, 1912 - Tossa, Girona, 1976). "Female nude". Oil on tablex. Presents sketch on the back. Signed in the lower right corner. Measurements: 60 x 83 cm; 74 x 97 cm (frame). Painter and draftsman, Francesc Serra spent his youth in Granollers, Barcelona. Although he passed fleetingly through the School of La Lonja in Barcelona, he is basically a self-taught author. He had his first exhibition in 1932, at the Sala Parés in Barcelona, and participated in the Salones de Primavera between 1934 and 1936. In 1936 and 1937 he was a special guest of the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, United States. He continued to hold individual exhibitions in Barcelona, mainly at the Sala Gaspar. A great admirer of Degas, he was especially influenced by his favorite theme, the feminine. Sporadically he also tackled other themes, such as the urban landscape, of which the series of Paris, presented in 1951, is worth mentioning. Likewise, with his portraits of the lead mine he approached the sensitive realism of Ingres. He won several awards, including the Sant Jordi of Barcelona (1953) and the first medals at the National Exhibitions of Madrid (1957) and Barcelona (1960). He collected several unpublished drawings under the title "Dibujos de Serra" (1973), with a prologue by Santos Torroella. Determined defender of realism in art and of traditional figuration against the avant-garde, he published the essay "La aventura del arte contemporáneo" (1953), with a prologue by Rafael Benet. He is represented in the Museums of Modern Art of Madrid and Barcelona and in the Museums of Fine Arts of l'Empordà and Sabadell.

ACHILLE BATTISTUZZI (Trieste - Barcelona, 1891). "View of Barcelona".1878. Oil on canvas. Signed, dated and located in the lower right corner. Attached to the back a label of Ramoneda & Barrachina. Measurements: 90 x 131 cm; 110 x 151 cm (frame). Achile Battistuzzi was an Italian painter who lived in Barcelona for most of his life, giving the Catalan capital magnificent port and urban views. In the painting shown here, Battistuzzi's mastery of working the space in a scenographic manner is evident, naturally superimposing the mountainous landscape (the Montjuïc area) and the port of Barcelona, which can be glimpsed in the background, criss-crossed with boats. The Reales Atarazanas (Royal Shipyards) divide the seafront and the margins of the city. In this panoramic view, the artist displays his skills as a veduttist and his bold use of light. The rural area with its peasants and the port area with its fishing boats form two parallel realities. Achille Battistuzzi settled in Barcelona around 1866. He specialised in landscape paintings with urban scenes. He was one of those who introduced Venetian Vedutism to Catalonia, following the influences of Canaletto and Guardi. His work "El pla de la Boqueria" is in the collection of the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. Painted around 1873, the work was exhibited at the Universal Exhibition in Barcelona in 1888. The Barcelona History Museum has nine works by the artist, and the Historical Archive of the City of Barcelona holds two oil paintings, two watercolours, two drawings and two engravings. The Maritime Museum of Barcelona holds the canvas entitled "Vista de las Reales Atarazanas de Barcelona y de la Montaña de Montjuïc" (View of the Royal Shipyards of Barcelona and Montjuïc Mountain).
