Paris Café Boulevard Street Scene Oil Painting, Catalan Urban Cityscape Artist: Ramon de Capmany i de Montaner (1899–1992) Title: Parisian Café Boulevard Urban Scene Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 60 × 81 cm / 23.6 × 31.9 in Signature: Signed upper left Frame: Unframed Period: Mid-20th century Style: Catalan modern painting, Parisian urban scene, Post-Impressionist cityscape, European figurative painting Subject: Paris boulevard, café terrace, street life, figures, architecture, trees, urban landscape Condition: Good vintage condition, with age-related surface wear, texture and patina consistent with the period. Description Beautiful and highly atmospheric oil on canvas by Ramon de Capmany i de Montaner, depicting a lively Parisian boulevard with café terraces, elegant façades, trees, pedestrians, children, a nanny with a pram and a striking iron railing in the foreground. The painting has everything a strong collector’s cityscape needs: architecture, human movement, café culture, depth, light and narrative. The blue façade of “Le Barbier” becomes the visual anchor of the composition, while the figures scattered across the boulevard create the feeling of a living city, observed with intelligence and charm. Capmany builds the scene with a refined balance between structure and spontaneity. The foreground railing gives the painting a powerful sense of perspective, almost theatrical, as if the viewer were standing at the entrance of the square. Beyond it, the street opens into a luminous Parisian world of cafés, trees, shopfronts and passing figures. The brushwork is loose, textured and expressive, yet always controlled. Soft greys, pale blues, greens, ochres and touches of red and yellow give the composition a fresh urban luminosity. The result is not merely a view of Paris, but a complete atmosphere: elegant, social, nostalgic and full of quiet movement. This work is especially appealing for collectors of Paris street scenes, European urban paintings, café terrace paintings...

EMILIO GRAU SALA Spanish, 1911 - 1975 BOULEVARD OF PARIS signed “Grau Sala” (lower right) oil on canvas 25-1/2 x 32 inches (65 x 81 cm.) framed: 36-1/4 x 42-1/2 inches (92 x 108 cm.) Emilio Grau Sala came from a family of artists. He was born in Barcelona in 1911 and his father, a good cartoonist, had been one of the promoters of the "Salon des Humanistes" and made his exhibitions normally in the Parés Hall. His first works were exhibited at the Salon des Independents, in the years 1930-33. Grau Sala was essentially a Mediterranean painter, son of post-impressionism and enriched with French painting of the last fifty years. In this work Grau Sala has a loose, subtle brushstroke, in which the color shapes the entire work. The bright and transparent whites that give life to young schoolgirls contrast with the brushstrokes of blacks from the nun who accompanies them. The explosion of greens is refreshing, it surrounds us and transports us to an idyllic place, even if it is a citizen boulevard, which becomes friendly and beautiful. His works can be found in the Museums of the Villa de Paris, L'Ile de France Museum, at the Château de Sceaux, Honfleur Museum, La Rochelle Museum, Barcelona Museum, Tossa de Mar...
