Retrato de Ignacio – Diego Rivera
Retrato de Ignacio is a painting by Diego Rivera: a barefoot boy in blue overalls and a big straw hat, standing calmly on a yellow rug. We paint our hand-painted study of Retrato de Ignacio to order on canvas, in oil or acrylic, in 8 sizes from 40 × 50 cm to 150 × 200 cm or in a custom size. Before Retrato de Ignacio is dispatched, we send you a photo of the finished painting.
What does Retrato de Ignacio show?
Retrato de Ignacio shows a dark-haired boy with large dark eyes, in a white shirt and wide blue overalls, his hands folded in front of him and a huge yellow straw hat on his head, with a blue wall and a red brick floor behind him. Rivera painted Mexican children with serious, tender respect, which is why Retrato de Ignacio feels warm, calm and touching.
How is our hand-painted study of Retrato de Ignacio made?
Our painters paint the study of Retrato de Ignacio by hand, with brushstrokes of different thickness, separately for every order. We paint in oil or acrylic, depending on the subject and the size, so the surface of Retrato de Ignacio has a real paint texture that a print does not have. The first photograph shows our finished study of Retrato de Ignacio in a gold frame on the easel, the second and third photographs show it from the side, and the fourth photograph shows the boy’s face, hand-painted in dense strokes, up close. When Retrato de Ignacio is finished, we photograph it and send you the photo for approval.
