The Wait. Signed Miriam Álvarez de Toledo. Spanish School. 20th Century

Descriptio Oil on panel. Dimensions: 90 x 100 cm. A genre scene depicting a rooster, perched before an old wooden door, stands out against the whitewashed wall of a rural house. The composition, with its austere vertical structure, highlights the contrast between the rustic surface of the wood and the luminous whiteness of the wall, modulated with soft chromatic nuances. The naturalistic treatment and precise handling of light evoke the contemporary Spanish pictorial tradition, in dialogue with the poetic realism of 20th-century Andalusian painting. The fluid brushstrokes and warm palette accentuate the contemplative nature of the domestic scene. Due to its age and history of use, this lot may show signs of wear and previous interventions. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no specialized technical testing has been performed. The absence of any mention of restorations does not guarantee that none exist. You may request additional information before placing a bid. This does not affect the buyer’s statutory rights.
