CARMEN LAFFÓN DE LA ESCOSURA (Seville, 1934). "Vase with daisy". Pastel on paper. Signed in the lower right corner. Framed with museum glass, floating effect, with wooden frame. Size: 34 x 24,5 cm; 58 x 48 cm (frame). Still life in which the artist has used a palette of very clear and bright colours that recreate a brilliant atmosphere. A small glass vase contains a delicate vessel of white flowers, which have been arranged as a pictorial nexus by using a subdued treatment of the tones that blend together creating a powdery and lyrical finish. Carmen Laffón is a figurative painter and sculptor who has received numerous awards for her work (National Prize for Plastic Arts in 1982, academician of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid...). He began his training in painting with Manuel González Santos, a painter who was a friend of the family, and this was extended when he entered the School of Fine Arts in Seville. In 1954 she made a study trip to Paris, where she discovered and was impressed by the work of Marc Chagall; a year later she went to Rome on a scholarship, also travelling to Vienna and Holland, and on her return to Seville in 1956, her house opposite the Coto de Doñana would become the centre of her artistic production, beginning to exhibit her work two years later (Madrid, Seville). Between 1960 and 1962 he went to Madrid, where he met Juana Mordó (who offered him a contract with the Biosca Gallery and later another when she set up her own gallery). He returned to Seville and set up the El Taller school with Teresa Duclós and José Soto, beginning his career in art teaching. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions, most of them of a national nature, including the exhibition held in 1992 at the Reina Sofía Museum and Art Centre in Madrid, which hosted a retrospective of the artist's complete oeuvre, including works in different formats that reflected the concerns of the artist's entire artistic career. Her works are preserved in private collections as well as in prominent institutions such as the Museo Nacional, the Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Museo de Arte Abstracto in Cuenca, the Meadows Museum in Dallas (USA), the Museo Colecciones ICO in Madrid, the Fundación Casa de la Moneda in Madrid, etc.
