Description
Oil on canvas.
Signed.
On the reverse, remains of a label of the frame shop Al Bruch (?).
With period frame in moulded and gilded wood.
Attached is a period photograph of "Photo-Studio Areñas" (16 x 11.2 cm photo; 28.5 x 18.6 cm cardboard support), which was the basis for the oil portrait.
Miquel Bayona Durán (Sabadell, 1874 - Barcelona, 1932) was a prominent art collector of the first third of the 19th century. Self-taught, he progressed socially and professionally, from his first job at the age of 12 as a bellboy in Banca Marsans, until becoming a banker and shareholder in the same institution. With a restless and cosmopolitan spirit, he travelled all over Europe and practised various sports (such as cycling, boxing, fencing and stick defence). In his day, his great love for art was well known, especially among art galleries in Barcelona. Another portrait of this model as a young man, painted by Francisco Sans Castaño, is offered in this auction. For more information about the portrait, please contact the gallery.
