Oil on canvas painting, featuring fruits in a basket; signed and attr. Ismael González de la Serna (Spanish, 1898-1968); 21.5 x 15 inch (54.61 x 38.1 cm). Ismael Gonz?lez de la Serna was born in 1898 in Granada, Spain. He began painting and drawing when he was nine years old. While a number of his works certainly echo the influence of Picasso and Braque, such influence was mirrored within a Cubism of his own making. In the instinctive equilibrium of his work, the blend of exuberance and sober expression, the use of color, and the strength of the lines, De La Serna reminded Zervos of Zurburan, El Greco, and Cézanne. De la Serna continued to work throughout the 1940's and 1950's. His style evolved into pure combinations of color and form. His paintings continued to be shown in France, Germany, Spain, and Mexico. In 1963, he was invited to participate in an exhibition of French paintings at the Tate Gallery in London and in an exhibition at the Hammer Gallery in New York. PROVENANCE: Southern Ontario Estate
