Briefly, I'd like to mention Ramon Casas I Carbo. Four samples of his work are pictured above. Carbo was a 19th century figurative painter from Barcelona, Spain. Matthew Innis introduced me to his work and does a much better job at providing detailed information on his life as well as additional Carbo works. The link to his blog is listed above.

Fantastic! I saw a couple of paintings of his when I was an art student and traveling through Barcelona in the eighties. I was blown away and when I came back no one knew who he was and there was no material on him. It's a shame!
