Artwork description

“The summer of 1954 was very productive for a young Ángeles Benimeli who knew that in September she was going to enter the San Fernando School of Fine Arts in Madrid. At the age of 21, she already knew very well the technique of oil on canvas and the great masters of intimacy and the color green in all its shades along with the brown colors of the earth and the trees, providing a soft yellow to give luminosity to the sets. naturists who sheltered under the vegetal shade. Would she had Monet in her mind? These 3 landscapes were created in the Retiro Park in Madrid, which was in front of her house and which she painted from nature during the holidays in 1954. She always had a special affection for these 3 oil landscapes and had them displayed in her homes. from Madrid, Tenerife and Alicante. Few Spanish artists will be able to transport you to the intimacy of Madrid in 1954 like these 3 clearly impressionist landscapes.”
