"...when one sees one of my pictures, one asks oneself this simple question: 'What does that mean?' It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it's unknowable." René Magritte

There are some works of art that everyone’s seen so many times that it’s hard to imagine them as anything different from the original.

DUARDO LEÓN GARRIDO Spanish, 1856 - 1949 BEFORE THE BALL signed, located and dated "E. L. Garrido" París 1882 (lower right) oil on mahogany wood panel 25-3/4 x 31-3/4 inches ( 65 x 80 cm. ) framed: 36-3/4 x 42-3/4 inches ( 93 x 108 cm.) A Certificate of Authenticity is included, issued by Manuel Barbie Art Gallery, dated in Barcelona on December 9, 1977 PROVENANCE Manuel Barbié, Galeria de Arte, Barcelona. Private Spanish Collector, Barcelona A ball preparation scene in a rococo atmosphere, precisely a theme that the artist specialized in Paris in the decade of the "80s". This interior refers to the Halls of the Palace of Versailles, where the painter used to be inspired many times using an oval composition with different corners of lights and threads, and a loose but very rich brushstroke with different layers of fine paint in pearly and white tones that give life to the precious and ornate dresses of the ladies. The richness of the wine-colored velvet curtains that hang in the living room, and the marble of the floor give that sophisticated and elegant air that the artist wants to reflect Eduardo León Garrido (Madrid, 1856 - Caen, 1949) was a Spanish painter. He began his training at the Higher School of Painting in Madrid and as a disciple in Vicente Palmaroli's workshop. Thanks to a scholarship granted by the Diputación de Madrid, he traveled to Paris where he went to Raimundo Madrazo's workshop. Later he traveled to Italy, contacting Venice with Spanish painters such as Mariano Fortuny and Martín Rico. In 1905 he was appointed professor of the School of Arts and Crafts of Varennes, remaining in France the rest of his life. His son Louis-Édouard Garrido was also a painter1 His style is influenced by Impressionism and for some critics it resembles that of Manet. His work is mainly dedicated to traditional themes, portraits of elegant women dressed in Belle Époque clothes and the reproduction of gallant scenes. He achieved great success in his time and exhibited in Paris, London and Munich. Some of his work can be seen in the Prado Museum (Madrid), National Museum of Fine Arts (Argentina), Bilbao Fine Arts Museum and private Spanish and International collections

Paintings of historical interiors are always fascinating as they are a glimpse of the stylistic conventions from past eras. They give us an insight into a past life, decorating trends of the time, people's lifestyles and, of course, the state of mind of the artist who created them. They give us a wonderful opportunity to discover the past! With this in mind, we wouldn't lie saying that such paintings as Vincent van Gogh's 'The Bedroom', Grant Wood's ‘The Sun Shine on the Corner’, Wassily Kandinsky's ‘Interior (My Dining Room)' and many more, are historical records.
