Dario de Regoyos y Valdes (Spain, 1857-1923). "Paisaje Con Casa (Landscape with House)", oil on artist's board, signed lower right "D. de Regoyos". Likely painted en plein air during the latter part of the artist's life, this painting depicts an adobe or stucco structure at center with yellow walls and forward slanting red clay roof with wooden pole supports leading from side walls, the front portion of structure having two doorways on front with one horizontal window to right and the left wall of structure having one square window, and the back portion of the building having one visible vertically aligned window. The dwelling is set within a colorful landscape with a stream culminating just before the door flanked by grassy banks in several tones of green with red flowers on either bank. The house is surrounded by a swath of light pink, possibly a field of wild flowers or clay, with two tall tree groupings behind the roof in green, pink, and yellow. A cloudy sky emerges to right of structure above a path that leads into the distance, the clouds being a light yellow tone set within a blue sky transitioning to purple at horizon line along a grouping of trees in the distance.
