      MANUEL FERNÁNDEZ CARPIO (Jaén, 1853 - 1929). "Andalusian party", 1897. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated in the lower right corner.

      Est: €6,000 - €7,000

      MANUEL FERNÁNDEZ CARPIO (Jaén, 1853 - 1929). "Andalusian party", 1897. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated in the lower right corner. Measurements: 60 x 89 cm; 84 x 116 cm (frame). In this canvas the author offers us an image of festive character, with the protagonists arranged at the entrance of an inn, accompanied by several popular characters worked with detail and a narrative sense that seeks to capture the picturesque, following the taste of the time. At a formal level, the importance of the chromatic study is especially noteworthy, which acquires a special brightness thanks to the clear light that enters through the doorway. Costumbrismo painting is a genre in which popular types and attitudes, behaviors, values and habits common to a specific group of the population, region or class are described by means of a satirical, nostalgic or narrative description of the environments, customs, dress, parties and entertainment, traditions, trades and representative types of a society. The idea of costumbrismo arose from an attempt to understand reality, or more precisely, reality understood in a particular way, from a specific point of view. The painter Manuel Fernández Carpio began his training in Jaén under the guidance of Manuel de la Paz Mosquera, and later went to Madrid thanks to a scholarship from the Diputación Provincial de Jaén that allowed him to continue his studies at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. Once he finished his studies, Fernández Carpio combined his artistic practice with teaching, an activity he developed first at the Escuela Superior de Artes de Industrias de Madrid, and later at the Escuela de Bellas Artes de Málaga and the Escuela Industrial de Santander. At the same time he made his work known to the public through official exhibitions, and participated assiduously in the National Exhibitions of Fine Arts held in Madrid, being awarded an honorable mention in 1895 for the work "Procesión de san Antonio, en Madrid". He was also awarded a medal at the Provincial Exhibition of Jaen in 1878 for his painting "He is dead!". In his works he dealt with different themes, among which the most important ones were customs and landscape painting, although he also dealt with some historical themes such as the conquest of Jaen and even made some orientalist works. Manuel Fernández Carpio is currently represented in the Prado Museum (works on deposit in the Municipal Museum of Madrid and the Palace of Ayete in San Sebastián), the Museum and the Provincial Council of Jaén, the Museum of Fine Arts of A Coruña and other public and private collections.
