About the Item

An early 20th Century oil on canvas painting by Mexican artist Guillermo Gómez Mayorga. The painting depicts his most recurrent motif, the open waters of Mexican sea. The painting is signed on the front and has its original wood frame. Guillermo Gómez Mayorga (Puebla, México, 1887 - 1962) was a Mexican painter, one of the first artists who embraced the Impressionist style in Mexico. A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts of Puebla along fellow painter Francisco Morales van der Eyden. He got a scholarship to move to the Mexico City from president Francisco I. Madero. Thanks to that support, Gómez Mayorga got to meet the great teachers of the Academia de San Carlos: José María Velasco, and Germán Gedovius. A landscape artist by calling, Gómez Mayorga painted mountain landscapes, rural views and still-lifes with vivid colors. He excelled as a marine painter. About his sea paintings, historian Rodrigo Amerlinck wrote: "(Gómez Mayorga was) a prominent artist who loved painting the sea, which he could paint with majesty, showing the ferocity of the sea and the zones of foamy water that cause a sense of classical beauty. His best sea paintings were painted only with two elements: water and sky. With these limitations, he built challenging scenes and serene atmospheres with rhythm, densities, movements, monochrome tonalities and luminic accents into fresh traditional Mexican beaches".
