Work Description

When viewing Alfonso Cuñado’s work, one is immediately struck by his restrained, minimalist approach to color. In Parasols in the Main Square of Salamanca, he employs a harmonious spectrum of yellow and purple to define both the historic architecture and the figures within.


Through layered, sculptural palette-knife strokes, Cuñado builds a rich sense of depth and tactile texture, creating a dynamic interplay of stillness and movement. The sunlit square appears momentarily frozen, yet pulses with the quiet energy of city life, capturing a fleeting, vibrant moment in time.
