Vicenç Caraltó
(Barcelona, 1936-1995)
Untitled
1968
oil on plywood
93.8 x 99.8 cm
Inv. no. 32785
BBVA Collection Spain
The rural landscape is the central subject of this oil painting. Around this time, Caraltó explored a wide variety of subject matters, ranging from landscape to mundane objects. Afterwards, the artist focused more on the female nude, a recurrent theme in his later works.
In this work, his palette is soft, within a range of ochre and earthy tones, sometimes mixing the colours by superimposing layers of different tones. Noteworthy is his highly personal handling of the palette knife: applied with small rectangular touches, Caraltó leaves traces of oil paint that generate an elegant rhythm throughout the whole surface of the work.
