Chiquito Futbolista de Tanger 1982

Sanguine on paper. Signed and dated in Roman numerals lower right. The title at the top right. Claudio Bravo Camus was a Chilean painter who established himself above all for his compositions (particularly parcels) and hyper-realistic portraits, including those of eminent political figures. Rightly considered one of the greatest masters of hyperrealism, Claudio Bravo pursued photography in painting, but always starting from the direct observation of the objects themselves: "The eyes see much more than the camera: half tones, shadows, minute changes of color and lights,” he said. The portrait presented here, that of a well-known Moroccan football player, exudes a meticulous and mimetic realism, particularly in the man's gaze; it was created during the years in which the artist lived in Tangier, where he had taken refuge to escape Franco's dictatorship. It is presented in a frame.

Oil painting on canvas. Emilian school of the 18th century. Large portrait of a 17th century nobleman, dressed in an elegant cloak edged with spotted fur and with the white wig typical of 17th and 18th century fashion, identifying a high lineage. The gentleman is holding a sheet of paper on which a church surrounded by other buildings is drawn, perhaps a convent, or in any case a village of which the nobleman was probably a benefactor. The painting has been restored and relined. It is presented in a contemporary gilded frame. The previous owners indicated that it came from an elegant building in Parma.
