BID HISTORY
DESCRIPTION
Spanish school of the 19th century.
"Musketeer".
Oil on panel.
With signature in the lower left corner.
Presents faults in the frame.
Measurements: 26 x 16 cm; 52 x 42 cm (frame).
This work belongs to the genre known as painting of casacones in Spain, works generally of small format starring elegant eighteenth-century characters, in the manner of "Il Contino" by Marià Fortuny, or by musketeers and other characters of baroque inspiration. These works derive from the influence of Velázquez and his contemporaries, both in their setting and form, although we will generally find hedonistic and cheerful themes, far from the Baroque theme. On this occasion the character is presented to us in a relaxed attitude, although drunk, judging by the cup she holds in her hands. It is a narrative scene, starring a musketeer with tousled hair, more in the fashion of the nineteenth century than in the early seventeenth century, dressed in the clothes of the time: red tights, ochre doublet, pink shirt and white undershirt, with ruffles on the cuffs and collar.
