Catalogue Note

Cruz-Herrera vécut longtemps au Maroc et est surtout connu pour ses thèmes marocains. Il effectuait néanmoins de fréquents séjours dans son pays natal, où il exposait régulièrement. Dans ses tableaux espagnols, il reste fidèle à ses thèmes de prédilection: la femme, les fêtes, les foules, toujours peintes dans des couleurs vives et chatoyantes.
