No title 7

A half-length profile portrait of an elderly man sitting at a coffee table, a work by Jesús Moncada. The man, with a face marked by the years, is shown in a relaxed yet thoughtful posture, as if lost in his thoughts while gazing into the distance. The background is subtle, blurred, allowing the attention to focus on the man and his serenity.

Jesús Moncada (Mequinenza, 1941-2005) has been recognized by critics as one of the best contemporary writers of the 20th century. For many years, he combined his passion for literature and painting, which began during his youth in the Old Town of Mequinenza.
