    Est: €3,500 - €4,000

    RAFAEL DURANCAMPS I FOLGUERA (Sabadell, 1891 - Barcelona, 1979). "Outskirts of La Garriga". Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner. The frame needs restoration. Measurements: 40 x 61 cm; 56 x 80 cm (frame). Under a limpid sky, a suburban landscape with houses and sown fields unfolds. Except for a cyclist sliding along the dirt road, silence seems to be palpable in this faithful representation of the suburbs of La Garriga. Rafael Duran i Camps, better known as Durancamps, was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell. He later met Joaquín Mir, with whom he established a close relationship, and whose style influenced the colourful language of Durancamps's early period. He exhibited for the first time in 1917 at the Galerías Layetanas in Barcelona, and his success encouraged him to continue painting despite his family's opposition. He spent several periods in Madrid, where he studied the masters of the Prado Museum, and then travelled to Italy. He returned to Barcelona and took part in various competitions, winning important prizes such as the Masriera medal in 1920, as well as holding several exhibitions at the Sala Parés. In 1921 he travelled to Paris for the first time. His work at this time is close to Impressionism, but also shows the influences of Zurbarán, El Greco and Venetian colourism, combining the precision of the drawing with the gravity of the colour. In 1926 he returned to France and settled in Passy, where he lived until 1939. During these years he met Picasso, who encouraged him to hold exhibitions at the Zak gallery, where he enjoyed considerable success, which increased with his successive exhibitions. He returned to Spain and settled in San Sebastián, but continued to work closely with the Sala Parés, where he continued to hold exhibitions until his death. He also held various exhibitions in Madrid, Sabadell, Bilbao, Valencia, London and Philadelphia. Although his first period was influenced by Mir, Durancamps soon evolved towards a more personal conception, giving special prominence to the constructive line and a peculiar colouring of sober beauty. His still lifes, which he treated with a profusion of line and transparency, are a prodigy of serenity and elegance, with such a personal stamp that they escape any contemporary classification. His landscapes and genre scenes, especially the "capeas" in various Spanish villages, are highly emotive. The "skies of foreboding" that express the drama of the fiesta evoke his acute lyrical sense. He is represented in the Museums of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Madrid, San Sebastián and Buenos Aires, as well as in a large number of Spanish and foreign collections.

Rafael Durancamps immortalized in several occasions this barber's shop of Cadaqués. The reason for this can be found in the artist's own words: How I enjoyed painting this old barbershop in Cadaqués, with those Elizabethan armchairs and the sea reflecting in the mirror! It reminded me, I don't know why, of Degas .... a Daumier. Originally called Rafael Duran i Camps, he was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell.

His still lifes, which he treated with profusion of line and transparency, are a prodigy of serenity and elegance, with such a personal stamp that they escape any contemporary classification. His landscapes and genre scenes, especially the capeas in different Spanish villages, are of great emotion. The "skies of foreboding" that express the drama of the fiesta evoke his acute lyrical sense. He is represented in the Museums of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Madrid, San Sebastian and Buenos Aires, as well as in a large number of Spanish and foreign collections.

    RAFAEL DURANCAMPS I FOLGUERA (Sabadell, 1891 - Barcelona, 1979). "Capea". Oil on panel. It has a carved and gilded wooden frame. Signed in the upper left corner. Measurements: 38 x 45 cm; 63 x 72 cm (frame). Rafael Duran i Camps, better known as Durancamps, was a disciple of Vila Cinca in the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts of Sabadell. Later he met Joaquín Mir, with whom he established a close relationship, and whose style influenced the colorful language of Durancamps' first period. He exhibited for the first time in 1917, in the Layetanas Galleries of Barcelona, reaping a success that encouraged him to continue painting despite the opposition of his family. He spent several seasons in Madrid, where he studied the masters of the Prado Museum, and then traveled to Italy. He returned to Barcelona and took part in various competitions, winning important prizes such as the Masriera medal in 1920, as well as several exhibitions in the Sala Parés. In 1921 he travels for the first time to Paris. His work at this time is close to impressionism, but also shows the influences of Zurbarán, El Greco and Venetian colorism, combining the precision of drawing with the gravity of color. In 1926 he returned to France and settled in Passy, where he lived until 1939. During these years he met Picasso, who encouraged him to hold exhibitions at the Zak Gallery, where he obtained considerable success, which increased in his successive exhibitions. He returned to Spain and settled in San Sebastian, but continued to work closely with the Sala Parés, where he continued to hold exhibitions until his death.

On page 82 of the book written by Eugenio d'Ors dedicated to the study of the work of Durancamps, these words of the artist are collected "I do not get tired to paint what I always see, with the constant illusion of being able to do it better, Thus this interior of workshop that, almost as a Trappist, I never abandoned". The space of the image accompanying the text, which shows the artist's workshop, is similar to the one presented here. Although it is true that in this case the artist focuses on the figure of the woman, who absorbedly contemplates part of the work of Durancamps himself.

In fact, regarding El Escorial, the artist commented: "La Romería de la Gracia in El Escorial. Everything in it incited to pick up the brushes".

In this painting, Durancamps works one of his favorite themes: partial views of the Empordà villages animated by their people. The bright colors of the clothes contrast with the whiteness of the houses of the picturesque village, whose whitewashed facades gleam under a sky of mottled silver. The formal structure, based on elegant lines that outline the buildings, is balanced with the chromatic synthesis of warm and cold tones, with a studied luminous effect.

A theme that was addressed by Durancamps on numerous occasions. Originally called Rafael Duran i Camps, he was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell.

Rafael Durancamps made several works dedicated to capeas such as the capea of Seville or the capea of Bilbao in addition to the work "Capea" which is in the Carmen Thyssen Bornemisza Collection. In all of them the author created a landscape format work as in this case, which allows him to open the panoramic view and increase the spatial sensation. This work is an excellent example of his paintings dedicated to the aforementioned theme with the action developed in a foreground populated by characters and an urban silhouette dominating the last plane.

Signed in the lower right corner. Measurements: 38 x 55 cm 55,5 x 72 cm (frame). In this work the author represents the port of Barcelona from a perspective where the light sensitivity and balanced composition prevail, in which the artist captures the essence of the port landscape with a vibrant and evocative atmosphere. The scene is structured in several planes that allow a fluid reading of the image: in the foreground, human figures stroll along the sand accompanied by a dog, while in the middle area the set of boats unfolds, from small boats to large steamships, which fill the view of the port with dynamism. In the background, the imposing silhouette of Montjuïc mountain rises, crowned by the fortress, a key element in Barcelona's visual identity. Durancamps demonstrates in this work his mastery in capturing the atmosphere, using a chromatic palette of warm and earthy tones that contrast with the reflections of the sky and water. His brushstroke is agile and expressive, especially in the representation of the smoke emanating from the ships and in the textures of the sails and port structures.

    RAFAEL DURANCAMPS I FOLGUERA (Sabadell, 1891 - Barcelona, 1979). "Capea in Almansa (Albacete)". Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower left corner. Attached certificate of Marçal Barrachina. Measurements: 54 x 73 cm; 68 x 87 cm (frame). With a background that insinuates a landscape of La Mancha bordered by soft hills in front of which a town of rustic architecture is drawn, Durancamps contextualizes the bullfighting festival, which takes place in the center of the square. The painter resolves it with loose and synthetic brushstrokes. The whole is more evocative than detailed, while opting for neutral and earthy tones, restrained gestures and a sense of generalized restraint. In this way, the anecdotal is subordinated to the harmony of the whole. Rafael Duran i Camps, better known as Durancamps, was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell. Later he met Joaquín Mir, with whom he established a close relationship, and whose style influenced the colorful language of Durancamps' first period. He exhibited for the first time in 1917, in the Layetanas Galleries of Barcelona, reaping a success that encouraged him to continue painting despite the opposition of his family. He spent several seasons in Madrid, where he studied the masters of the Prado Museum, and then traveled to Italy. He returned to Barcelona and participated in various competitions, obtaining important awards such as the Masriera medal, as well as several exhibitions in the Sala Parés. In 1921 he travels for the first time to Paris, and five years later he returns to France, settling in the city of Passy until 1939. He returned to Spain and settled in San Sebastian, but continued to work closely with the Sala Parés, where he continued to exhibit until his death. He also held various exhibitions in Madrid, Sabadell, Bilbao, Valencia, London and Philadelphia. He is represented in the Museums of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Madrid, San Sebastian and Buenos Aires, as well as in a large number of Spanish and foreign collections.

    RAFAEL DURANCAMPS I FOLGUERA (Sabadell, 1891 - Barcelona, 1979). "Return to the countryside, Calatayud". Oil on tablex. Signed in the lower left corner. Measurements: 65 x 100 cm; 81 x 117 cm (frame). This painting of Rafael Durancamps that represents Calatayud offers us an evocative and masterfully executed vision of the Aragonese city. The composition is structured in several planes that guide the viewer's gaze from the foreground, populated by human and animal figures, to the imposing castle on top of the hill that dominates the scene. The atmosphere of the work is reinforced by the use of a warm chromatic palette, in which the ochre and golden tones of the rock contrast with the dark greens of the vegetation and the reddish hues of the buildings. Durancamps demonstrates in this work his mastery in the handling of light and color. The lighting, which highlights the texture of the rock and the architectural volumes, creates a sense of depth and dynamism. His loose but precise brushwork lends vitality to the scene, while the careful arrangement of the elements reinforces the sense of compositional balance. In terms of style, the work reflects influences of Luminism and Post-Impressionism, combining a vigorous stroke with an enveloping atmosphere. L Originally called Rafael Duran i Camps, he was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell. Later he met Joaquín Mir, with whom he established a close relationship, and whose style influenced the colorful language of Durancamps' first period. He exhibited for the first time in 1917, in the Layetanas Galleries of Barcelona, reaping a success that encouraged him to continue painting despite the opposition of his family. He spent several seasons in Madrid, where he studied the masters of the Prado Museum, and then traveled to Italy. He returned to Barcelona and took part in various competitions, winning important prizes such as the Masriera medal in 1920, as well as several exhibitions in the Sala Parés. In 1921 he travels for the first time to Paris. His work at this time is close to impressionism, but also shows the influences of Zurbarán, El Greco and Venetian colorism, combining the precision of drawing with the gravity of color. In 1926 he returned to France and settled in Passy, where he lived until 1939. During these years he met Picasso, who encouraged him to hold exhibitions at the Zak Gallery, where he obtained considerable success, which increased in his successive exhibitions. He returned to Spain and settled in San Sebastian, but continued to work closely with the Sala Parés, where he continued to hold exhibitions until his death. He also held various exhibitions in Madrid, Sabadell, Bilbao, Valencia, London and Philadelphia. Although his first stage was influenced by Mir, Durancamps soon evolved towards a more personal conception, giving special preponderance to the constructive line and a peculiar coloring of sober beauty. His still lifes, which he treated with profusion of line and transparency, are a prodigy of serenity and elegance, with such a personal stamp that they escape any contemporary classification. His landscapes and genre scenes, especially the capeas in different Spanish villages, are of great emotion. The "skies of foreboding" that express the drama of the fiesta evoke his acute lyrical sense. He is represented in the Museums of Contemporary Art in Barcelona, Madrid, San Sebastian and Buenos Aires, as well as in a large number of Spanish and foreign collections.

Measurements: 54 x 73 cm; 72 x 90 cm (frame). With a background that insinuates a landscape of La Mancha bordered of soft hills before which a town of rustic architecture is drawn dominated by a great watchtower, Durancamps contextualizes the bullfighting party, which is developed in the center of the square. The painter resolves it with loose and synthetic brushstrokes. The whole is more evocative than detailed, while opting for neutral and earthy tones, restrained gestures and a sense of generalized restraint. In this way, the anecdotal is subordinated to the harmony of the whole. Rafael Durancamps made several works dedicated to capeas, such as the capea of Seville or the capea of Bilbao, as well as the work "Capea" which is in the Carmen Thyssen Bornemisza Collection. In all of them the author created a landscape format work as in this case, which allows him to open the panoramic view and increase the spatial sensation. This work is an excellent example of his paintings dedicated to the aforementioned theme with the action developed in a foreground populated by characters and an urban silhouette dominating the last plane. Originally called Rafael Duran i Camps, he was a disciple of Vila Cinca at the Industrial School of Arts and Crafts in Sabadell. Later he met Joaquín Mir, with whom he established a close relationship, and whose style influenced the colorful language of the first period of Durancamps.

In this painting Durancamps portrays a view of the Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial, using an elevated point of view, as is usual in painting. With this perspective he emphasizes the majesty and symmetry of the architectural complex. Influenced by masters such as Joaquim Mir, the artist has used a color palette that highlights the hallmarks of the contrasts between the gray stone of the building and the surrounding natural environment, possibly capturing the specific light and atmosphere of the place. The choice of El Escorial as a subject reflects Durancamps' interest in Spain's emblematic landscapes and monuments. Throughout his career, he showed a penchant for depicting scenes that combine natural beauty with historical and cultural richness. In fact, regarding El Escorial, the artist commented: "La Romería de la Gracia in El Escorial. Everything in it incited to pick up the brushes".

In this painting, Durancamps works one of his favorite themes, the urban theme animated with its people. A group is gathered by the bay of Cadaqués. The bright colors of the clothes contrast with the whiteness of the houses of the picturesque town of Empordà, whose whitewashed facades gleam under a silver sky. The formal structure, based on elegant lines that outline the buildings, is balanced with the chromatic synthesis of warm and cold tones, with a studied mood effect.
