GERMÁN TAIBO GONZÁLEZ (A Coruña, 1889 - Paris, 1919). Untitled. Oil on canvas. Signed in the lower right corner. Size: 60 x 50 cm; 82 x 70 cm (frame). Through the use of a loose and fluid brushstroke the author of this work presents us with a friendly scene of bourgeois character, starring a young girl with her back to the spectator. The girl s presence is relegated to the background, as we can see a greater interest in capturing the exterior landscape, and in the lighting effects caused by the light in the interior in which the composition is conceived. An open interior with large windows that combine the space of the house with the garden and are a sign of the artist s skill, who, despite the lack of brushstrokes, manages to capture the delicacy of a transparent curtain, behind which the landscape is slightly distorted. The work follows the aesthetic precepts of the impressionist movement, opting for a study of light in which the artist can capture the immediacy of the moment. Germán Taibo grew up in Buenos Aires, where he emigrated with his family as a child. It was there that he began his artistic apprenticeship, later extending his studies in Paris at the Académie Julien. From Paris he travelled to his native city in 1908, coming into direct contact with the Galician artists of the province. He took part in the Regional Exhibitions of Galician art in 1912 and 1917, while continuing his international projection by taking part in both European exhibitions, such as the Paris Salon of 1913 (in which he won the second medal), and American ones. In this respect, his links with his adopted country are particularly evident in his participation in Spanish painting exhibitions organised at the Witcomb Salon in Buenos Aires. His presence in the Buenos Aires exhibition scene culminated in his personal exhibition in 1910 at the same gallery, as well as in his participation in the Galician Art Exhibition of 1919, organised by Fernando García in Buenos Aires. His pieces exhibited there constituted a sort of posthumous homage to Taibo,
