Joaquín Caso Ariño (XX) - Font de Canaletes, Rambla de Barcelona

Oil on canvas by Catalan painter Joaquín Caso Ariño (born 1925), depicting the iconic Canaletes Fountain on La Rambla in Barcelona.

He was a very active painter during the second half of the 20th century, recognized precisely for his urban views of Barcelona, especially the Ramblas, the Gothic Quarter, and the city’s monumental areas. He mastered oil genre scenes with a Post-Impressionist approach. His technique is distinguished by capturing the changing atmospheres of the Condal city: rainy days, the play of nocturnal lights, and the reflections of water on the asphalt or the Barcelona cobblestones, as perfectly seen in his Canaletes Fountain canvas. It is a magnificent original example by this painter, dated 1988, documenting the classic heartbeat of Barcelona through his textured palette.
