Stately home in Valencia Painting

Choosing this scene, we wanted to convey that kind of envy that one feels when he looks up a street in the center of the city and observes those attic terraces of the stately buildings. Anyone can imagine himself living on those floors and he stays admired. The treatment that has been given to the image is intended to give a contemplative view of the subject through the stability of each element. The composition in the form of a square helps to give a roundness to the painting. On the other hand there are two dynamic forces that cancel each other out, like the two ladies in the Aquarium painting. The diagonal of the facade of the building that rises from left to right "collides" with the direction of the sunlight that goes down from right to left. Finally the composition is a clear balance between cold and warm tones, the blue sky to the left and the large yellow spot of light to the right. The composition induces calm and invites us to look at the dark windows that do not offer information about what goes on inside. Once again the pattern of the scene in which nothing happens is repeated, in which no dramatized scene is given. The only dramatism is that of light illuminating buildings. The intention is similar to that of the Surrealists. It is assumed that by focusing attention on the literality of the image, a building, the restless intellect of the viewer will look for meaning in the painting. This can happen in part, especially in the Western consumer, because we are used to looking in the painting for a supposed hidden reading. As in this case there is not, or at least it is not explicit, the viewer is supposed to be frustrated in his attempt to rationalize the work. The desire with this mechanism is that the viewer draw their own conclusions.
