A friend and colleague of fellow Spaniard Mariano Fortuny, Sánchez-Perrier’s landscapes possess a remarkable, nearly photographic clarity which stems in part from his training under the French academic artist Jean-Léon Gérome. This work, painted near Granada, Spain, is typical of his subjects which draw on the natural and architectural elements of the rustic Spanish countryside.
