Ghost Hour, from «Les parques»

Joaquim Pla Janini :: La hora del fantasma, no datat. Bromoli sobre paper. Aquesta obra forma part de la sèrie «Les parques». | src MNAC ~ Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya
Pla Janini era un virtuós de les tècniques pigmentàries. Pràcticament la totalitat de la seva obra són bromolis transportats. Constitueix un dels màxims exponents del pictorialisme català, el qual preconitza la culminació de l’art fotogràfic a partir de visions bucòliques o espiritualitzades de la naturalesa, i d’unes escenes poètiques d’inspiració classicista.
