Boys

Work signed in Almadén de Azogue MCMIX. The foreground presents a magnificent foreshortening, most certainly the same boy from the drawing Boy and in the second plane a boy with his back turned, in which in reality he was only concerned with the torso, insinuating the legs and cutting the left arm, almost certainly influenced by August Rodin, or by the Greco-Roman sculptures. These figures are exquisitely treated, with softened volumes and a smooth and continuous contour line. Text by Antonio Salcedo Miliani
