Solitary Tree Landscape-Catalan Expressionist Watercolor

DescriptionThis striking 1987 watercolor titled L’arbre solitari presents a poignant vision of solitude, featuring a lone tree silhouetted against a storm-laden sky. The artist uses layered washes and emotive brushstrokes to create a rhythmic interplay of form and color—dark earthen textures underpin a band of glowing green, while the richly hued foliage bursts in tones of amber, ochre, and moss. The composition, structured in simplified horizontal strata, evokes a quiet but powerful tension between serenity and melancholy. Rooted in the Catalan Expressionist tradition and shaped by the aesthetics of Lyrical Abstraction, the painting distills landscape into a poetic symbol of emotional introspection. Its refined balance of color and form speaks to a practiced hand, producing a timeless piece that commands presence and calm. ArtistUnknown artist, signed and dated 1987. Artist DetailsThough unsigned by a known figure, the work reflects a deep understanding of post-war Catalan Expressionism—where mood, abstraction, and gestural clarity converge.
