Rincón apacible

This is one of the favorite frames of the Oriolano painter. The window as a reflector of natural light illuminating a woman sewing (which is repeated in Portrait of her niece or women dotting, as is the case of the magnificent work belonging to the Alicante City Council, Conversation). The attention to the seamstress's self-absorption, the preciousness of the hands in perceived and subtle movement, and a certain virtuosity in clothes and fabrics, make these works of endearing naturalness, a clear demonstration of why she is considered, in her poetics of the simple, one of the best painters of his generation.
