EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant oil painting by Ramon Casas captures the lively spirit of a Sardanas dance in the fountain of San Roque in Olot, Spain. Created between 1901 and 1902, during the height of the modernism period, this artwork showcases Casas' mastery of color and movement. The scene is set against a backdrop of Barcelona's beautiful architecture, with participants wearing traditional Catalan dresses known as barretinas. The circular formation emphasizes unity and community, which are central themes in Sardanas dances. As musicians play their instruments nearby, men and women join hands to form concentric circles around the fountain. Casas skillfully depicts the joyous atmosphere through his use of bold brushstrokes and warm hues. The winter setting adds an element of contrast as dancers gather together to celebrate despite the cold weather. This painting was created for the Liceo Circle in Barcelona, a prestigious cultural institution that promoted art and intellectual exchange during that time. It serves as a testament to Casas' talent as well as his dedication to capturing authentic moments from everyday life. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this print offers viewers a glimpse into early 20th-century Catalonia while celebrating the enduring tradition of Sardanas dancing.
