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 He collected several unpublished drawings under the title "Dibujos de Serra" (1973), with a prologue by Santos Torroella.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.

JOAN BRULL VINYOLES (Barcelona, 1863 - 1912). "Female portrait. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower corner. Measurements: 41 x 61 cm; 55 x 73 cm (frame). Joan Brull was formed in the School of Fine Arts of Sant Jordi of Barcelona, where he stood out as an outstanding student. Influenced by the realism of his teacher Simón Gómez Polo, he began his career with costumbrist and historical themes such as "La tonsura del rey Wamba", exhibited at the Sala Parés in Barcelona in 1883. During these years he was also related to the modernist movement and symbolist aesthetics, influences that marked much of his production. He then went to Paris, where he completed his training with Rapahel Cöllin for five years. His style evolved in an increasingly personal direction, leaving behind realism in favor of a "fin de siècle" idealism. Nevertheless, he continued to be interested in history painting, genre scenes and portraits, achieving great mastery in the latter. On his return to Spain, he participated in numerous group exhibitions in Madrid and Barcelona, as well as abroad, in London and Paris. He also took part in the National Fine Arts Exhibitions in Madrid, where he was decorated in 1892, 1895, 1897 and 1899. In those held in Barcelona he was also distinguished in the editions of 1894, 1896, 1898, 1907 and 1911. He obtained third medal in the Paris Exhibition of 1900, and was named Commander of the Order of Alfonso XII in 1904. He also participated as an art critic in the magazine "Joventut". On the fringes of academic rigor, Brull Vinyoles soon abandoned himself to the pictorial idealism to which he devoted all his work. A man of great culture, he actively participated in the gatherings of Els Quatre Gats. His technique of blurred contours, grisaille and pearly tones, as well as his subject matter populated by ethereal female figures, allow us to situate his work within romantic symbolism. After his untimely death, the Sala Parés in Barcelona dedicated a tribute exhibition to him (1913). Brull is represented in the Museo del Prado, the Museo Nacional de Arte de Cataluña, the Museo de La Garrotxa in Girona, and the Museo de Art Nouveau y Art Déco Casa Lis in Salamanca.
