Césareo Bernaldo de Quirós: his biography

Cesáreo Bernaldo de Quirós was born in Gualeguay, Entre Ríos, on May 28 1879. When he was very young, Quirós discovered that he loved drawing. In 1895, he went to Buenos Aires and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts. In 1899 Quirós won the Rome prize, which consisted in a scholarship to study in that city. In 1905, his works were part of the International Exhibition in Rome and the King of Italy congratulated him.

For six years he lived in different cities in Europe and made friends with great artists. In Florence he met Maria Antonelli, who was the mother of his two children, Carlota and Mario.

In 1910, he returned to Entre Rios and presented 26 works at the Centennial Exhibition. Later that year he returned to Europe where he worked and had an active social life.

In 1915, Quirós came back to Argentina and after some time he started painting his magnificent works called “Los Gauchos”, where we can appraise the local landscape, traditions and people.

Quirós continued to travel around North America and Europe and in 1936 he returned to Argentina and settled near Paraná where he painted landscapes and still lifes. At the end of the 1940s, Quirós moved to Vicente Lopez. There he went on painting countryside motif and still lifes until his death on May 29, 1968.

He left us paintings full of passion and spirituality.
