Women have been the inspiration for many artists, both in drawings, canvases, music, poems and in all expressions of art.

---

---

Whether describing characteristics of women or expressing experiences, heartbreaks, love or relationships with mothers or daughters.

The female figure has been at the centre of many works of art, of the most varied type and during the different periods of history, from classical art to abstract or surrealist art.

---

Many songs have been written with a woman as their inspiration, and many stories, tales and poems have been written with a woman as their inspiration.

---

Every work of art, no matter what kind it is, speaks of its characteristic virtues, or also of different experiences lived with respect to it, good or bad.

In the Revello del Toro Museum, there is a very singular mezzanine. A reduced space in the form of two corridors with dim light, where the artist's sketches and drawings are exhibited.

---

I tried to get as close as possible to them, as many of them were framed and behind a glass case, very well kept.

---

The painter has made countless sketches and pencil drawings with great detail on the faces of different women, the expressions on their faces are beautiful.

---

---

I think he tries to capture that simplicity, but at the same time magic that a woman has, that mystery hidden behind her eyes, that magnetism that attracts.

I also notice that he wanted to capture the sensuality, the elegance, the different profiles and points of view of feminine beauty. It is likely, I think, that for the artist the woman was a big question mark, a mystery to be solved and perhaps he thought that by painting her he could unveil it.

---

---

Her eyes, the eyes of these women reflect many things, from that mystery to sadness, joy and strength. I really like to focus on people's looks, because behind them you can see the personality and I think the artist did something similar.

I got the impression that Revello del Toro had the female figure on a pedestal, like something out of this world, something celestial.

---

He put a lot of detail in every stroke of the pencil and in the curves of the woman's face and body.

---

I think that behind this attitude of drawing and also painting the woman, because in another part of the museum there are many paintings, there is a great admiration for her, as something difficult to understand and often contradictory.

---

---

I see real admiration, yes, and a lot of admiration for feminine beauty, both in her physique and in her personality and soul, and it is demonstrated in these beautiful drawings, which she has done with such precision.

I was surprised to find this in this museum, when I went up to that mezzanine. These are some of the artist's drawings, the ones I found most representative of what women meant to him and how they were the muse in his art.

---

---

The whole environment was well lit to protect the works, it was a bit difficult to take pictures because of the reflections of the lights and shadows, but I tried to capture as best I could some of these beautiful works.

Thank you all very much for watching and reading this far, I wish you all a very good Sunday and see you next time.
Amonet.
