Description


There are two known proofs of this print. One of them, dated 1930, has defects, and the other is at the Museu del Castell de Vilanova i la Geltrú (1929). Beautiful drypoint on a rural theme, which shows the flair of the best of Nogués’ works.

Description


There is a copy of this etching at the MNAC. It is a minor work and was produced in just one stage. The drawing is dry and somewhat crude and lacks the cheerfulness of so many of Nogués’ prints.

Description


It is a pity that the last plate used was so badly polished. The grey shades mean that many of its tonal values have disappeared. Nevertheless, we can still see Nogués’ inventive skill and the spirit with which he observes the bored café-goers seated around the table on the terrace.
