Canto de soles. París — Fine Art

A sunlit cluster of bright shapes sits against a muted ground in Canto de soles. París. Pedro Coronel often worked with bold colour and loose drawing. The picture reads as a warm patch of light seen from across the room. Up close you notice the uneven paint and a few darker lines.

The fine art print sits on matte paper that keeps the bright patches from shining under a lamp. A light frame on a dark wall or a wood frame beside wooden furniture follows the room. The paper holds the yellow and orange tones without a glossy surface.

On a stairwell wall the bright shapes stand out against the steps. From the landing you see the warm centre first, then the darker edges. Pedro Coronel painted this kind of sunlit scene with quick marks and open colour.
