The work has not previously appeared on the market. Magnificent, monumental oil on táblex by the costumbrista painter Alfons Sanz Domènech. The large gallery-format work (70 x 80 cm) depicts an idyllic, traditional riverside scene in the Albufera of Valencia. Its composition features the iconic barracas with thatched roofs and several boats moored along the bank amid dense vegetation. The artist’s excellent technique stands out: he uses very loose, heavily loaded brushstrokes (impasto), creating genuine three-dimensional relief that interacts beautifully with the light. The artist’s signature is seamlessly integrated into the painting in the lower-left quadrant, in the form of his characteristic orange “ASanz” monogram. The reverse confirms the work’s handmade, period character, retaining its original workshop seal with kraft tape and fastenings from the second half of the 20th century, as well as pencil notes on framing on the stretcher. The painting is beautifully presented in a high-quality fine-wood frame, with a velvet-effect mat and a gold profile. An immaculate, fresh piece, ready to hang and ideal for collectors of regional Spanish landscape painting.
