Demetrio Susín Barra (1949) - Triptico de La Playa

Triptych of beach scenes by Demetrio Susín Barra, signed and purchased from the artist. An attractive set of three small original oil paintings on panel, with a genre scene theme and a clear inspiration from the luminism of Joaquín Sorolla, is presented. The three works depict beach scenes with characters dressed in fashion from the early 20th century: elegant ladies with hats and parasols, figures strolling along the sea, and small groups enjoying the coastline. The main appeal of the set lies in its extraordinary visual harmony. The three compositions share theme, proportions, color palette, and treatment of light. The ochre and golden tones of the sand contrast with the bluish-gray of the sea and the delicate whites of the dresses, creating a series especially pleasant to display together. Despite their small format, the paintings show notable richness of detail suggested through quick, spontaneous, and expressive brushstrokes. The artist builds the figures through small spots of color, without resorting to overly defined drawing. The visible brushstroke, the chromatic contrasts, and the economy of means convey movement and evoke the atmosphere of the Mediterranean beaches of the early last century. This free and luminous interpretation of coastal scenes recalls Sorolla's pictorial tradition and his particular interest in the effects of light, everyday life, and figures beside the sea. The three works, signed “Susín,” are presented individually in black frames with white mat. Given their dimensions and characteristics, they constitute a small coherent collection that allows enjoying the three compositions as a single pictorial narration. The frames are considered gifts. Dimensions of 10.5x6x5 cm each.
