Catalogue Note

After finding success in his native Andalusia, Emilio Sánchez Perrier moved to Paris in 1879 and joined the ateliers of Jean-Léon Gérôme and Félix Ziem. The synthesis of Gérôme's traditional academic training and Ziem's expressive, naturalistic and Impressionistic approach is evident in Sánchez Perrier’s exquisitely rendered landscapes.

We would like to thank Juan Fernández Lacomba for kindly confirming the authenticity of this lot.
