Rafael Fernandez de Soto (1915-1984) - Calle Leona, Barcelona
A typical work by this Catalan artist.
Plenty of works by this artist can be found on the internet
His strength was the evening light so characteristic
for the narrow alleys in the old centre of, a.o.,
Barcelona.
The Calle Leona was known but also
notorious for a brothel that was located there.
De Soto signs his work almost invariably with
a vintage (in Roman numerals) MCMLVI (1956).
The frame is slightly damaged (see the last photo)
Catalan painter specialised in the themes
landscapes, cityscapes and still lifes.
He travelled through Spain in a trailer that served as
studio and exhibition space.
He was awarded at the spring exhibition in
Montjuic in 1945. Was friends with Picasso.
