Technical Data Sheet Title: La Arboleda (Zaragoza) Artist: Juan Bayón Salado (Bay Sala) Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 23.6 x 28.7 inches Condition: Unframed Period: Mid-20th century Style: Impressionism with Expressionist influences Description: This painting depicts a wooded riverside landscape, likely the Ebro River as it passes through Zaragoza. The open composition and vibrant natural light emphasize green and ochre tones, evoking an atmosphere of tranquility and connection with nature. The arrangement of trees in perspective guides the viewer's eye toward the horizon, where a red building provides contrast and balance to the scene. On the right, small human figures add dynamism and depth to the landscape. The loose brushstrokes and tonal transitions suggest an agile yet detailed execution. Artist's Biography Juan Bayón Salado, artistically known as Bay Sala, was born in Logroño on June 24, 1913, and passed away in Bilbao on April 2, 1995. In 1918, his family moved to Bilbao, where he developed most of his artistic career. In the early 1930s, he set up his easel in Bilbao’s Arenal district, painting and raffling his works to support his parents. In 1941, he held his first exhibition in Bilbao, followed by another in Zaragoza in 1942, where he began signing his works as Bay Sala. In 1950, he moved to Paris in search of Impressionist roots, residing there until the late 1960s. His style is characterized by Impressionist brushstrokes with Expressionist touches, focusing primarily on urban and rural landscapes. His works are part of significant collections and museums, including the Museum of Fine Arts in Bilbao and the San Telmo Museum in San Sebastián.
