Summer Sands II: Classic Art Reproduction
By Lluís Ribas (b. 1949), in a Private Collection
A stunning, framed replica on artists' grade canvas
A unique vertical composition and an almost voyeuristic intimacy draw the eye and the imagination into an immediate visual conversation with this Mediterranean-inspired work by Spanish artist Ribas. Our authentic stretched canvas replica captures the original painting’s texture, depth of color and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand. Our imported, bright gold-toned, leaf motif hardwood frame includes a solid brass museum plate etched with the title and artist’s name.

Among his many distinguished professors were Professors Nel.lo, Noe and Parramon. In 1969, Lluís Ribas married Magda Busquets. They have two sons, Lluís born in 1977 and David in 1980.
From 1969-1974 he was involved in a number of creative professional activities including: direction of foto-novels; technical direction of comic magazines; work as an illustrator; photographic reports; and graphic design.
