MANUEL BENEDITO VIVES Valencia (1875) / Madrid (1963) "Port

Oil on canvas Mary Delgado was a young actress when she posed for Manuel Benedito in the late 1930s. It is a portrait painted with total freedom in which the definition of the face contrasts with the sketchiness of the clothing, the fan and the urban landscape in the background. We would like to thank the Manuel Benedito Foundation for its help in cataloguing this work. Measurements: 67 x 48 cm
