D Garcia Roig Appraisal

Les Musiciens by D. Garcia Roig

This item is an oil painting on canvas titled "Les Musiciens" by the artist D. Garcia Roig. The painting depicts a stylized figure in a sitting position, playing a flute or similar wind instrument. The figure has an exaggerated head with shaggy brown hair and is wearing a horizontally striped shirt with alternating red-orange and light blue bands. Its legs and arms are rendered in a reddish-brown tone. The background is composed of dark, earthy tones, with a prominent dark red or maroon section to the right of the figure, suggesting a wall or structure. The left background features a lighter, possibly tan or off-white area, with what appears to be part of another figure or element, indicated by light blue legs or limbs. The overall style suggests a folk art or naive art approach, characterized by simplified forms, bold outlines (though not always strictly defined), and a somewhat whimsical quality. The brushwork appears to be textured, especially in the dark background and the red-orange section, indicating a medium like oil or acrylic with some impasto. The painting is framed in a simple, possibly wooden frame with a light-colored linen or canvas liner adjacent to the artwork itself. A white label or tag is affixed to the bottom edge of the frame, providing identifying information: "8363 BY D. GARCIA ROIG 'LES MUSICIANS' CANVAS". The condition appears good, with no visible major damage such as cracks, tears, or significant paint loss from the provided image. The colors retain vibrancy. The frame shows some minor wear consistent with age, but no apparent structural issues. The legible label provides crucial provenance and identification details for the artwork and artist, indicating it was likely sold through a gallery or exhibition.
