LEONARDO ALENZA Y NIETO (Madrid, 1807 - 1845). "Beggars". Oil on canvas. Another version of this painting was auctioned at Alcalá Subastas on 15 June 2023. It has craquelure. Measurements: 35 x 27,5 cm; 53 x 45,5 cm (frame). Costumbrista themes were Leonardo Alenza's favourite genre. On occasions he adopted a satirical tone, but in his depiction of the most disadvantaged sectors of society he showed delicacy and respect. This is the case in the present scene, in which three beggars shelter from the inclemency of the weather, sheltered in front of an old wall of a dilapidated house. Each character withdraws into his or her own interior. Silent, they withdraw into their thoughts: a boy with his clothes in tatters, a woman emptying her basket and a crestfallen man holding his dog on a leash. Another version of this painting was auctioned at Alcalá Subastas (15-06-2023). Leonardo Alenza began his training by learning drawing with Juan Antonio Ribera, and attending the colouring and composition classes given by José de Madrazo at the San Fernando Royal Academy. In 1842 he was appointed academician of merit of San Fernando. He specialised in small-format genre paintings, as well as portraits full of life in which he knew how to endow his models with expressiveness and psychological depth. Aureliano de Beruete considered him the most important of the painters influenced by Goya. Leonardo Alenza is widely represented in the Museo del Prado, and also has works in the Romantic and Municipal Museums of Madrid, the Biblioteca Nacional, the Lázaro Galdiano and the Marqués de Cerralbo.

LEONARDO ALENZA (MADRID 1807-1845), "LA CORRIDA DE TOROS", SPANISH COSTUMBRISTA SCHOOL OF THE 19TH CENTURY, SIGNED
Est: €4,000 - €4,500
Oil on canvas, 40 x 35 cm, framed measurements: 60 x 50 cm. He was born in Madrid on November 6, 1807. His mother María Nieto died when the child was still small and in 1817 Father Valentín remarried the young Micaela Bertrandi. Both of them, from a modest situation, facilitated his studies, and in return, he always lived with them and helped them. A municipal plaque in Plaza de San Ildefonso No. 4 indicates that he had his studio there. It was his home where he died of tuberculosis on June 30, 1845, at only 37 years old.

Est: €5,500 - €6,000
Attributed to LEONARDO ALENZA Y NIETO (Madrid, 1807 - 1845). "Dwarfs". Oil on canvas. Re-drawn. It has a 20th century frame. Measurements: 82 x 62 cm (x2); 97 x 77 cm (frames, x2). This pair of canvases where the portrait of two male characters is shown separately, whose physiognomy indicates their short stature. The two figures are presented standing against an ochre background which gives them greater monumentality and importance. In both, despite the compositional differences, both are portrayed in jocular attitudes, in one case carrying pots and in the other a bottle of wine which they spill on the ground. Despite this, in both the artist has tried to portray both characters with a sense of dignity given by the fixed gaze towards the viewer. The influence of Teniers and other Netherlandish painters admired by Alenza can be seen in the skilful caricature-like characterisation of the figures. Popular flavour and political criticism are masterfully combined in this group of works. Leonardo Alenza began his training by learning drawing with Juan Antonio Ribera and attending the colouring and composition classes given by José de Madrazo at the San Fernando Royal Academy. In 1842 he was appointed academician of merit of San Fernando. He specialised in small-format genre paintings, as well as portraits full of life in which he knew how to endow his models with expressiveness and psychological depth. An outstanding renovator of the Madrid costumbrista school, his vision is critical of society, taking pleasure in reflecting conflictive aspects of life, as opposed to the kindly vision of his Andalusian contemporaries. A great draughtsman, gifted with an astonishing ease of execution, he was capable of sketching any scene that passed before his eyes with great economy of means, which enabled him to collaborate as a draughtsman in important publications of the time. His oil paintings are characterised by their loose, blotchy execution, as well as by his masterly handling of light and his mastery of colour. His palette is dominated, as we can see here, by brown and muted tones, a legacy of the more sober Goya, that of the "Black Paintings", which he also resembles in the subject matter chosen for many of his works. In fact, Aureliano de Beruete considered him to be the most important of the painters influenced by Goya. His is a loose brushstroke, which shapes the image with expressive patches of colour. He does not describe, but focuses on the faces of the figures, which are almost expressionistic in their treatment. Leonardo Alenza is widely represented in the Prado Museum, and also has works in the Romantic and Municipal Museums of Madrid, the National Library, the Lázaro Galdiano and the Marquis of Cerralbo.

LEONARDO ALENZA Y NIETO (Madrid, 1807 - 1845). "Goyaesque Scene with Bulls", Oil on panel. Engatillada. Presents frame of the nineteenth century. Signed in the lower right corner. Measurements: 18 x 12 cm; 33 x 27 cm (frame). Leonardo Alenza begins his formation learning drawing with Juan Antonio Ribera, and attending the classes of colouring and composition that José de Madrazo taught in the Royal Academy of San Fernando. In 1842 he was appointed academician of merit of San Fernando. He specialised in small-format genre paintings, as well as portraits full of life in which he knew how to endow his models with expressiveness and psychological depth.

THE ASYLUM, FOLLOWING GOYESQUE MODELS, LEONARDO ALENZA Y NIETO (MADRID, 1807-1845), 19TH CENTURY SPANISH SCHOOL
Est: €12,000 - €15,000
Oil on canvas, framed measurements: 94 x 80, canvas measurements: 72 x 58 cm. Certified by Arnáiz and published. Author of small-format costumbrista works, of portraits full of life in which he knew how to endow his models with expressiveness and psychological depth, and also of numerous drawings. Brown and muted tones predominate in his palette, a legacy of the more sober Goya, the Black Paintings, which he also approaches in the theme chosen in many of his works: the marginalized, the condemned... Not in vain Aureliano de Beruete considered him the most important of the painters influenced by Goya. Examples of this are El viatico and El gallego de los curritos (Prado). In the first he makes an interesting study of light, which is concentrated in the figure of the priest who carries the viaticum and contrasts with the figure in the foreground that appears from behind against the light, while around it there are several others that kneel as the Blessed Sacrament passes. Another aspect of Alenza's production to take into account is that he was a chronicler of his time; Proof of this are the paintings for the Café de Levante, of which the Museum preserves some examples. Leonardo Alenza can be considered the prototype of the cursed painter who suffered all kinds of deprivation in life and barely subsisted on the sale of his drawings.
