Mercado muy Temprano.

Provenance: Macarron, S.A., Madrid, with a partial label verso; private collection, New Jersey.Mompó (1927-1990) was one of the most prominent mid-twentieth-century figures in Spain linked to abstraction. Born in Valencia, Spain, he studied at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios of Valencia and the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes of Valencia before traveling to Paris where he met Eduardo Chillida and Pablo Palazuelo.
