About the Item

Mediterranean Coastal Landscape Oil Painting Spanish Impressionist Modern Plein Air Style Artist: Joan Vives Maristany Title: Coastal landscape Medium: Oil on cardboard Date: c.1990 Signature: Signed lower left Condition: Good condition Frame: Unframed Dimensions: 39 × 53 cm (15.36 × 20.87 in) DESCRIPTION Expressive Mediterranean coastal landscape painted by Spanish artist Joan Vives Maristany around 1990. Executed in oil on cardboard with confident plein-air brushwork, the composition captures the atmospheric structure of a rocky shoreline facing a distant mountain silhouette across a luminous blue sea. The painting combines structural immediacy with chromatic sensitivity typical of the Catalan landscape tradition, where direct observation and painterly interpretation coexist. The visible brush movement and tonal economy reinforce the spontaneity of outdoor painting practice while preserving a strong compositional balance characteristic of modern Mediterranean landscape painting. ARTIST BIO Joan Vives Maristany is a Spanish painter associated with the Mediterranean landscape tradition of northeastern Spain. His work focuses primarily on coastal and rural subjects interpreted through direct observation and expressive brushwork. Working within the lineage of modern Catalan plein-air painting, his landscapes reflect the continued vitality of the twentieth-century Spanish impressionist tradition adapted to contemporary practice. ARTISTIC CONTEXT / INSPIRATION The painterly immediacy of this coastal landscape connects with the Catalan plein-air tradition established by Joaquim Vayreda and Santiago Rusiñol and later developed through Mediterranean modern painters such as Joaquim Sunyer. The chromatic structure of sea and mountain atmosphere also resonates with the broader legacy of Spanish coastal painting associated with Joaquín Sorolla and the post-impressionist landscape interpretation present in artists working between observation and abstraction such as Nicolas de Staël and Richard Diebenkorn. The work belongs to this enduring Mediterranean landscape lineage where light, structure and gesture define the visual identity of the coastline as a central subject of modern painting. mediterranean coastal painting spanish landscape painting catalan landscape painting plein air painting spain coastal impressionist painting modern mediterranean painting sorolla influence landscape post impressionist landscape costa brava painting european coastal painting collector landscape artwork spanish modern landscape

Mediterranean Coastal Landscape with Farmhouse, Spanish Impressionist Oil Painting Artist: Joaquín Asensio Mariné (1890-1961) Title: Mediterranean Coastal Landscape with Farmhouse Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions (canvas): 33 × 41 cm / 13 × 16.1 in Dimensions (framed): 60 × 68 cm / 23.6 × 26.8 in Signature: Signed lower right Frame: Original carved frame included Condition: Very good overall condition with light age-related wear. Ready to hang. Description A superb original Spanish Impressionist oil painting depicting a traditional Mediterranean farmhouse overlooking the sparkling Catalan coastline. Painted by Joaquín Asensio Mariné, this luminous composition captures the timeless beauty of the Costa Brava through rich brushwork, harmonious colour relationships and an exceptional sense of Mediterranean light. Warm terracotta rooftops, silvery olive trees and the deep blue sea create an atmosphere of serenity and authenticity, transporting the viewer to the peaceful fishing villages and rugged coastal landscapes that have inspired generations of Spanish artists. Rather than focusing on meticulous detail, Asensio Mariné masterfully conveys atmosphere and emotion through confident painterly strokes and a refined, sunlit palette. The result is a highly decorative work that combines artistic quality with remarkable interior design appeal. This painting is equally suitable for collectors of twentieth-century Spanish art and for interior designers seeking authentic Mediterranean artwork capable of elevating coastal, contemporary, classic or organic modern interiors. An exceptional acquisition for collectors of Spanish Impressionism and for designers seeking authentic Mediterranean artwork with timeless decorative appeal. Biography Joaquín Asensio Mariné (Barcelona, 1890-1961) was a distinguished Spanish painter renowned for his landscapes, seascapes, still lifes and figurative works. Although largely self-taught, he established a successful artistic career through numerous solo and collective exhibitions across Spain and Latin America. His paintings are admired for their atmospheric light, balanced compositions and lyrical interpretation of the Mediterranean landscape. Today his works are increasingly appreciated by collectors for their decorative elegance and their important place within twentieth-century Catalan painting. Artistic Inspiration This painting reflects the luminous Mediterranean tradition developed by Joaquín Mir, Eliseu Meifrèn, Santiago Rusiñol, Modest Urgell, Joaquín Sorolla, Hermen Anglada Camarasa, Josep Amat and Francesc Vayreda. Its poetic atmosphere and expressive brushwork also evoke the decorative colour harmonies of Pierre Bonnard and Henri Manguin. Collectors searching for Spanish Impressionism, Catalan Impressionism, Mediterranean landscapes, Costa Brava paintings, European coastal art and museum-quality decorative paintings will immediately recognise the enduring appeal of this composition.

Mediterranean Coastal Landscape near Cadaqués Port Lligat Costa Brava Oil Spain

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Mediterranean Coastal Landscape near Cadaqués, Port Lligat Costa Brava Oil Painting, Textured Spanish Impressionist Seascape Artist: Jordi Pagans i Monsalvatje Title: Punta de la Guineu (Port Lligat) Medium: Oil on canvas Date: 1975 (as indicated on the reverse) Dimensions: Height: 54 cm (21.3 in) Width: 73 cm (28.7 in) Signature: Signed lower left. Inscription: Titled “Punta de la Guineu (Port Lligat)” on the reverse. Frame: Unframed. Condition: Very good condition. Stable paint layer with preserved impasto and vibrant colors. Origin: Spain. Expressive Mediterranean coastal landscape depicting Punta de la Guineu near Port Lligat, the small bay outside Cadaqués on the Costa Brava in northeastern Spain. The composition unfolds through layered horizontal planes that guide the viewer’s eye from the richly textured foreground vegetation toward the deep blue waters of the Mediterranean and the soft violet hills of the distant coastline. This structural clarity reflects the painter’s strong sense of composition and his deep familiarity with the landscapes of the Empordà region. Executed with thick impasto and generous palette-knife work, the foreground vegetation and rocky terrain reveal a highly tactile surface. The textured brushwork contrasts beautifully with the smoother treatment of the sea, creating a dynamic interplay between matter, light and atmosphere. The palette is characteristic of Mediterranean painting: warm ochres and earthy tones evoke the dry coastal terrain while luminous blues capture the clarity of the sea. Subtle violet and mauve tones in the distant hills introduce depth and atmospheric perspective. Scenes of the Costa Brava hold particular appeal for collectors and interior designers, as they evoke the unique landscape associated with the artistic heritage of Cadaqués and Port Lligat, famously linked to the environment of Salvador Dalí. This painting is a strong example of the artist’s mature landscape style, combining expressive texture, balanced composition and the distinctive light of the Mediterranean coast. Jordi Pagans i Monsalvatje was a Spanish painter born in El Masnou near Barcelona. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona and later continued his training under the painter Josep Roca-Sastre. Pagans developed a distinctive pictorial language rooted in Mediterranean figurative painting. His works often focus on coastal landscapes of Catalonia, urban scenes and still lifes, characterized by thick impasto, expressive palette-knife technique and a refined sensitivity to Mediterranean light. Throughout his career he exhibited in numerous galleries in Barcelona, Girona, Paris and London, establishing a strong reputation within the Catalan figurative painting tradition of the second half of the twentieth century. His paintings are appreciated today for their material richness and their evocative interpretations of Mediterranean landscapes.
