Who they were
A painter from Portbou who by seventeen had already made the work she is remembered for, and who after a breakdown and a long silence took up a very different kind of painting. That discontinuity makes dating the central question of her market: not all periods are paid alike, not by a long way.
Where to see their work
Houses in the directory that handle or have handled their work. It is not a list of availability: it means this is their ground, not that they have a piece today.
Their work
We do not reproduce their work. It is under copyright —in Spain, seventy years from the author's death, or eighty if they died before 1987— and publishing it without a licence would be exactly what the pact asks everybody else not to do. To see it, the public collections and the houses above.
Worth following
Institutions that hold or study their work. They are here so you can check it at the source, not take our word for it.
