Artwork location: Brazil

This mesmerizing artwork captures a quaint, historical European town adorned with half-timbered houses, characteristic of medieval architecture. The meticulous detailing in the buildings showcases the artist's precision, with each timber and window painted with accuracy, eliciting a sense of history and charm.

The central focal point is the grand, awe-inspiring cathedral that towers above the town. Its Gothic spires and ornate carvings are rendered in striking detail, casting a majestic shadow over the adjacent buildings and symbolizing the town's storied past. The imposing structure provides a vivid contrast to the more human-scale, cozy homes and shops that populate the foreground.

The artwork also portrays a lively street scene. A procession of people, dressed in traditional regional attire, adds a dynamic element to the painting. The figures are depicted with care, their clothing vividly colored and adorned with patterns that suggest cultural significance. This procession, likely a local festival or community gathering, injects life and movement into the scene, drawing the viewer into the communal spirit of the town.

The sky, painted a clear, calm blue, suggests a serene and peaceful day. This choice of color enhances the vibrancy of the scene below, making every detail stand out with clarity. The green embellishments at the lower edge of the painting harmonize with the overall composition, bringing balance and additional vibrancy to the piece.

This artwork is a captivating blend of architectural detail, historical reverence, and lively community atmosphere. The precision of the structures, the vibrancy of the figures, and the overall composition are a testament to the artist's skill and eye for detail, making this piece a remarkable homage to historical European town life.

Miguel Garcia Vivancos, Un mariage au village
Spain  • 1895

Presentation


Born in 1895 in Mazarrón, southern Spain, Vivancos has lived in different trades such as docker, truck driver, house painter and glazier. He participated in the defense of Puigcerdá, on the Republican side and was forced to take refuge in France in 1938. 

Under German occupation, he was put in prison which he managed to escape and entered the maquis. At the liberation, he is 50 years old, without work, without a job. To help him, he is offered to paint scarves... that is how his vocation was born. 

Picasso encourages it and it is the rise to the notoriety, slow at the beginning, but absolutely certain. He paints scenes of daily life in bright colors and especially the streets and squares of small French cities. Vivancos reproduces every stone, every brick. His vividly colorful work exudes poetic poise. The paintings of Vivancos are reminiscent of Louis Vivin, another well-known naive painter. He died in Córdoba in 1972.
