The Pine at Béjar
1900. Oil.Room 060A
This is one of the eleven works that Regoyos painted in Béjar and Candelario (Salamanca) in the spring of 1900. The Sierra de Candelario, seen in the background partly covered in snow, is depicted as purple with the lower slopes in violet in accordance with the Impressionist use of colour. The dotted, fragmented and superimposed brushstrokes and the practice of plein air painting, here under morning light, are also characteristically Impressionist.
