All auctions / Miscellaneous / Luis Martínez Delgado (1933) - Vue du Port de Ondárroa
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Hand-signed. - The port of Ondárroa has neither the soft lyricism nor the easy staging that urban summer vacationers seek for their August postcards; it is, let’s say from the outset, a hard port, a pure working artifact, where the Cantabrian Sea crashes against the breakwaters with the relentless stubbornness of truly real things. Here the landscape smells exactly like what nautical existence should smell like: salting, diesel, moldy netting, and the thick fat that drips from the backs of sardines in the fish market. The men who inhabit it do not walk the wharves to watch the sunset, but with the heavy step of someone whose feet are stuck in rubber boots and shoulders bent by Cantabrian swell; faces chiseled in stone by salt air, a harsh gravity and a brief, rough speech, polished by centuries of battling the squalls. In the tight mass of their fishing boats, jammed against the harbor stones, there is a beauty without adornment, an aesthetics of demand and physical effort that overwhelms for its absolute lack of literature: Ondárroa is simply a workshop of iron and wood cast into the mouth of the sea, where life is earned every dawn with arm strength and without the slightest concession to nostalgia. - Image dimensions without frame: 90 x 70 cm / 110 x 90 cm with exclusive, custom-made frame. In Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and unrepeatable. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision and masterful technique, characteristics that guarantee its authenticity.

Originality is the basis of our commitment to excellence, and for this reason every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity. Acquiring a work from Montbaron Gallery means owning an irreproducible piece, an investment in creativity and talent that over time will preserve its value both artistically and emotionally.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a unique piece in the world, with no replicas, and a testament to the innovation and passion of the artists we work with. Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. Although this is an administrative procedure, it is indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free international circulation. Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique and unrepeatable artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of each piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every purchase, we offer a digital Guarantee Certificate, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate certifies that the acquired work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin and state of conservation. The Guarantee Certificate includes full details about the piece, such as its author, creation date, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Guarantee Certificate will be issued at the client’s request, providing an official reference for the purchased piece. This document will be sent in digital format and will be signed by an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and backing. We are committed to the satisfaction and trust of our clients, so any doubts about the authenticity or the condition of the work will be attended to professionally and promptly. To request your Guarantee Certificate, please contact us through our usual channels. As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible conditions. For this, we work with a network of professionals specialized in art transport, who guarantee the utmost care throughout the entire process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to modification depending on various circumstances. These include fluctuations in the transport market rates, changes in the delivery location, the size and weight of the work, as well as possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fuel cost fluctuations or adjustments to customs and import tariffs. The final price of shipping costs will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed in advance before proceeding with the shipment. Our goal is to offer the best possible service, adapting to the needs of each client and ensuring that the work reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises. The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, and is therefore not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided to you at no additional cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be displayed immediately on your wall. Consequently, no damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will be accepted as a valid reason to file a claim or request a cancellation.
