Biography from Setdart

Josep Puigdengolas trained at the schools of Arts and Crafts and La Lonja in Barcelona, later completing his studies at El Paular and at the Royal Academy in Florence. He was a disciple of Eliseo Meifren and Joaquin Mir. In 1951 he was appointed professor of drawing at the Sant Jordi School of Fine Arts.

Although he had his studio in Barcelona, he frequently painted in La Cerdanya and Mallorca, specifically in the town of Deia. His work, of a luminous naturalism, derives from the style of Mir, and earned him great public acclaim. He focused his work on landscape, but he also worked on portraits.

Throughout his career he held several solo exhibitions, such as the one organised at the Salon Cano in Madrid in 1962, and took part in group exhibitions and competitions such as the National Exhibition of Fine Arts. A few months before his death, in January 1987, he held his last exhibition at the Sala Pares in Barcelona.

This a large size framed piece of art that I understand is a rare item. This landscape scenery/style to me has an Asian/Japanese feel.
