PERE PRUNA. English lady.

Pastel on paper Signed and dated 1925 74x54.5 cm Painted during his early Parisian period, at only 21 years of age, it reveals the finest aspects of his sober, modern style, executed in a medium he did not often use: pastel. Through the elegance of the lines, the delicacy of the modelling, and the softness of the face, this portrait stands as a clear example of Pere Pruna’s work. The vivid chromatic palette, contrasted with the restraint of the forms, lends a remarkable subtlety to the composition, a hallmark of his artistic production. Prolific and widely acclaimed, portraiture is one of the most valued genres in his oeuvre, shaped by his time in Paris, where he was close to Pablo Picasso and came into direct contact with the avant-garde movements.
