The elegant and refined style of Miralles is perfectly reflected in this work, where the French high society ladies is the protagonist.
The work has a careful drawing as well as a soft and vibrant brushstroke based on light and bright tones. With these characteristics of his painting Miralles was veru successful in Paris during the years he lived in the French capital (1875 - 1880), also in Barcelona, where he settled again after 1895.
Francisco Miralles y Galup (Valencia, April 6, 18481 - Barcelona, November 30, 1901) was a Spanish painter based in Paris and Barcelona.
His first youth years were spent in Barcelona; He later moved to Paris, where he developed most of his artistic career.
Disciple of Ramón Martí Alsina and brother-in-law of the famous pharmacist and industrialist Salvador Andreu, in the French capital he popularized a refined style focused mainly on traditional themes of bourgeois life and high society, especially starring female characters.
In 1895 he settled again in Barcelona, where his paintings were highly valued by the regular audience of the Sala Parés .
During his career he remained faithful to certain issues in his prolific Parisian stage. Highlights his oil Ride in boat (1888-1890, Carmen Thyssen Museum Malaga), work of his maturity where Miralles shows a soft and vibrant brushstroke, insisting more on faces and carnations to give them greater likelihood.
His works can be seen in a series of public collections; among others, in Spain, in addition to the aforementioned Thyssen Museum in Malaga, in the Modern Art Museum of Barcelona and in the Víctor Balaguer Museum Library; in France, in the one of Brest Fine Arts (La Place de Clichy, 1882); 3 in Chile, in the Municipal of Fine Arts of Valparaíso (The fisherwoman, 1880).

- "Moonlit River Scene", Early 20th Century Oil on Canvas by Luis Graner y ArrufiBy Luis Graner Y ArrufiLocated in Madrid, ESLUIS GRANER Y ARRUFI Spanish, 1863 - 1929 MOONLI RIVER SCENE signed and dated "L. Graner, 1925" (lower right) Oil on canvas 20-1/8 X 30 inches (51X 76 cm.) framed: 25-3/4 X 35-3/4 inches (65 X 90.5 cm.) PROVENANCE NEAL AUCTION COMPANY, New Orleans, LA, USA Private Collection, Barcelona Graner paints this work, Moonlit on the river, during his stay in the United States in the last stage of his artistic life, from 1910 to 1928, in full stage of maturity. This artwork reflects the constant search of the artist for the effects of light in his work. This persistent concern for light remains throughout his artistic life, which he learned in his Parisian stage under the influence of the painter Frances Platour. The silver light of the moon and the small lights at distance, which are tiny foci of artificial light, reflecting the river water, forming a chromatic range of greens, ocher and pearly that give a certain mystery to the composition, creating a modern approach to the landscape, by placing the two large trees at the edge of the river in the foreground Luís Graner y Arrufí, Spanish (1863–1929) was a Catalan painter in the Realistic style. He was born in Barcelona, and studied at the Escola de la Llotja from 1883, with Antoni Caba (color/composition) and Benet Mercadé (drawing). During his final year at school, he received a grant to study in Madrid, where he copied and learned from the Old Masters at the Museo del Prado. After that, supported by a fellowship, he moved to Paris and became a member of the Academie des Beaux-Arts. Later, he returned to Barcelona, but continued to travel to cities throughout Europe, including Berlin, Munich and Düsseldorf. Influenced by Richard Wagner's concept of "Gesamtkunstwerk" (Total Work of Art), he was motivated to create his own total art experience and organized the "Sala Mercè" (Mercy Hall) in Barcelona's Rambla District. The project involved contributors from every artistic discipline, including the new field of cinematography. The room was decorated by Antoni Gaudí. Other participants included Adrià Gual, Santiago Rusiñol, Ramon Casas...Category
