Large Pastel Modernist Village Landscape – Garcia Pitarch - Oil On Canvas

DescriptionThis serene composition by Garcia Pitarch (Valencia, 1910–1992) captures a tranquil hillside village bathed in violet light, its terracotta roofs and silvered trees reflected in calm water. The artist’s confident yet delicate brushwork and refined sense of colour create a meditative atmosphere that balances structure with lyricism. Subdued shades of lilac, green, and blue interlace harmoniously, while the rhythmic arrangement of buildings and foliage evokes quiet order and spatial depth. Pitarch’s refined palette and soft illumination reflect his mastery of tonal modulation within the mid-20th-century Catalan modernist tradition, merging impressionist sensitivity with formal restraint. The result is an elegant and contemplative landscape that conveys both calm and sophistication.
