In this magnificent painting of Sant Llorenç del Mont, France, the soft tones of blue, lilac and green imbue the landscape with peace and tranquility. This brilliant Spanish artist beautifully portrays the surface and texture of the mountain, taking care to highlight light, shadow and texture to create a wonderful sense of depth and dimension. The vast scenery dwarfs the trees and figures in the foreground in this powerful depiction of nature.
Born in Vic, Spain in 1917, Raimon Roca established his career as an artist in Sabadell, going on to continue his training at the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes of Barcelona. Having worked closely with Antoni Vila Arrufat, Roca had his first solo exhibition in Sabadell in 1941, and went on to hold many more throughout his career. Known for his landscapes and paintings of religious figures, as well as stained glass works, screen prints and much more, this multitalented artist always painted with a wonderfully vivid palette, celebrating the natural Mediterranean colours of his homeland.
