Oil painting on canvas with some measures 68x54 cm, by the painter Rafael Romero Barros (Moguer, 1832-Córdoba Huelva 1895) in 1863, is in the Museo de Bellas Artes de Córdoba .

It's one of his first works painted after settling in Cordoba, in it we see all the features of the painting of this little-known painter, the color force used by the painter, the thoroughness of their paintings, his taste for painting subjects nature and its very realistic.

This table is its greatest exponent in the still lifes painted by Raphael, which shows great skill in the natural study of the orange, orange leaf and orange blossom, which shows orange in several stages and we can find, even in the orange, cut the orange, peeled and we could even say that we check the sample in a glass orange.

highlight the great realism of the work, its preciousness and detail in the strokes, the big explosion of orange, which is most striking about the picture, and the great potential of something as Andalusia as the orange.
As a curiosity to say that this painter was curator of the Museum of Fine Arts of Cordoba, was and is a painter overshadowed by one of the great painters Cordoba while the son of Rafael, the great Julio Romero Torres.

MERRY CHRISTMAS. The Nativity. Church of Santa Catalina



Well just wanted to congratulate you all, how not being a blog of art with a great jewel, a Merry Christmas, I hope and pray that the light of the world will be born, let all the brilliance of their love for each of your hearts, to ponder these days which is the true meaning Christmas, and to discover we put it into practice every single day of our lives.

How not to keep the tone of my blog way to give some data of this great work, this is the polychrome wood relief carving in 1613, by the God of the Wood-Juan Martínez Montañçes-for the high altar of the Monastery of San Isidoro del Campo, the town of Sevilla Santiponce.

It can see that it is a work of maturity, where in spite of the Baroque style that dominates the work, we can see Renaissance airs on the faces of the images full of beauty and sweetness, the quality of execution carvings, the pliegeus of clothing and technical quality carving in relief, playing with lolúmenes and proportions to give the work depth or closeness.

As a curiosity that there is another table in the altarpiece, The Adoration of the Kings also Martinez Montanes, with the same quality and same technique work.
