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 He collected several unpublished drawings under the title "Dibujos de Serra" (1973), with a prologue by Santos Torroella.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

DOMINGO RAMOS ENRÍQUEZ (Cuba, 1894 - 1956). "Landscape with road". Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower margin. It presents damages in the frame. Measurements: 91 x 55 cm; 107 x 70 cm (frame). Domingo Ramos Enríquez was born in Güines. From early ages he manifested his vocation for painting and had the opportunity to study in Havana, in the Academy of San Alejandro. He became popular after a contest organized by Bohemia magazine in 1912; later he received a pension from the Cuban government to continue his studies in Madrid, at the San Fernando Academy. He perfected his art from the classes he received at the Academy and from an extensive tour of Europe and its network of pictorial trends, and in 1919 he exhibited in Barcelona several landscapes of the Spanish geography, very well received by the public. In 1921 he was back on the Island, where he presented an exhibition of 41 paintings, remarkable in their execution. Although he was a painter of international projections, as a landscape painter he did not cease to capture the autochthonous; in this sense, during all his artistic growth, he would be accompanied by the peculiar Pinar del Río geography, as exemplified by pieces such as El valle de Viñales, Nocturno, Mogotes de La Costanera, Siembra de Viñales, La sierra principal, Ensenada de Palmarito, Las dos hermanas and Sierra del Cuajaní. In turn, the Havana landscape would be reflected in the paintings El río Almendares, El bosque, Habana, Alrededores de Puentes Grandes, Río Piloña de La Habana and Los Colosos, among others. Shortly after, in 1923, an exhibition of thirty-eight works by Domingo Ramos was shown in a local of the Diario de la Marina, among these were some also inspired by the western landscape of the Island, the Pinar and Havana pictorial: Afternoon in the Valley, Autumn in Viñales, Sunset, Peñas de Viñales, Cueva del Espejo, Remanso del río San Vicente, Lomas de Santo Tomás and Golden Afternoon. This exhibition contributed to consolidate his prestige as a creator. In 1838, one of his large landscapes presided over the Cuban exhibit presented at the New York Fair. The mogotes of the Sierra de los Órganos, in full sunset, were captured by the artist with particular mastery and creative emotion, on the occasion of this international event. It is said that the painting was one of the most attractive for the public that attended the event, dazzled by the exuberance of Cuban nature. Domingo Ramos' rural landscapes would mark a milestone in Cuban plastic art and in the later projections of many of our artists.
