Writing desk. Bronze. 19th century. The four containers that make up the writing case are placed on a tray with curved profiles decorated with mouldings and scallops on its edges. The sandbox or sandpit, the feather duster and the inkwell have clear lines and smooth areas, combined with fine mouldings resembling a cord; the oval box with a lid finished in a knob has smooth mouldings on its entire outer surface. Although certain details (particularly the tray) could be reminiscent of certain Rococo works of the 18th century, the toned down movement of the tray, the decoration of the containers, the lines and the lack of prominent decorative elements would be more characteristic of the Neoclassicism of the 18th and 19th centuries, as is the inspiration in styles of the past and the combination of various currents in the same piece.

Figures with a soldier. Oil on canvas. 20th century. In this oil painting, a series of humble figures of all ages are placed to the right, and a soldier on horseback with his back to the viewer (a detail that, together with his posture, prevents any possibility of a heroic sense in the work); in the background, ruins with rocks occupy most of the canvas, leaving an opening to the horizon and a light of dawn to the left. Both in the types and in the composition and the ruins, the influence of ancient Flemish models in the painting is clear.
