Leopoldo García Ramón (1876-1958) - Paris: L'Arc du Triomphe du Carrousel et le Louvre
- Oil on board. Signed.
- García Ramón's work, the disciple of Sorolla who, after a long stay in France, was nicknamed "El Francesito", embodies like few others the fascination and the undeniable spell that Paris exerted over Spanish painting at the turn of the century. Just as masters like Raimundo de Madrazo or Luis Jiménez Aranda, who found in the capital of the Seine the ideal cosmopolitan stage to refine their technique, García Ramón succumbed to an early inclination toward the discoveries of Impressionism, though never renouncing the theory of Valencian light. In this view of the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel with the Louvre in the background, the artist combines the elegance of Parisian bourgeoisie with the rigor of plein air, capturing with precision the luminous effects of the afternoon. It is a perfect synthesis where the concern for solar glare, a direct heritage of the Valencia school, blends with that sophisticated aura of French bohemia, reminding us that Paris was not merely a place of residence, but an aesthetic revelation that allowed these painters to endow their scenes with a vitality and a modernity unique in the Spanish sphere.
