ADOLFO AGUILA Y ACOSTA ANTIQUE SPANISH OIL PAINTING
Adolfo Aguila Y Acosta, Spanish, 1858 to 1901, an antique oil on board painting depicting a portrait of a Spanish beauty, 1906. Signed and dated lower right. Adolfo del Aguila y Acosta is best known for his images of Spanish beauties in traditional dress, a subject he was productive with especially after 1900. Like his father and brother, he also produced a number of genre scenes. These took romanticized visions of Spains past and present as their subjects, looking, for example, to middle and lower-class celebrations in the countryside. Other times, he might produce Rococo revival images of the grandeur of eighteenth-century aristocratic pastimes. Along with his father, Adolfo exhibited in several exhibitions, including the 1880 Cadiz Exhibition. In 1886, he was teaching drawing and painting in the Calle Guadalete in Jerez de la Frontera. By 1909 he was a professor at the Escuela Superior de Artes Industriales y Bellas Artes de Cadiz. One of a kind artwork. Classic European Portrait Paintings And Fine Art Collectibles.
