Original Description
Manuel Ramírez Ibáñez’s Feast Day in Venice (original title: Día de fiesta en Venecia) is a captivating 19th-century Spanish genre painting that immerses viewers in the vibrant atmosphere of a Venetian celebration. Created in 1877 during the heyday of Romanticism, the artwork masterfully blends realism with theatrical lighting, depicting elegantly dressed aristocrats and masked revelers along the iconic canals. The warm golden hues, intricate detailing of period costumes, and play of reflections on water showcase Ibáñez’s academic training at Madrid’s Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. Though less internationally known than his contemporary Mariano Fortuny, Ibáñez’s Venetian scenes remain prized for their documentary precision of 18th-century Venetian society amid rising historicism in European art. The painting exemplifies Spain’s unique contribution to costumbrismo – the romanticized portrayal of regional customs that gained prominence after the country’s 1868 Glorious Revolution.
For interior styling, this medium-sized canvas (standard versions measure 24×36 inches) brings old-world grandeur to traditional or eclectic spaces. Its gold-dominated palette pairs beautifully with rich burgundy or moss green walls, while the aquatic reflections suggest placement near actual water features like fountains or aquariums. In home offices or libraries, frame it in ornate Baroque-style gilt to complement wood-paneled walls and leather furnishings; for contemporary settings, a minimalist black floater frame creates striking contrast. The painting’s horizontal composition makes it ideal above mantels or console tables, where guests can appreciate the narrative details. Repeating the artwork’s sapphire blues in throw pillows or Murano glass decor creates cohesion, while directional lighting (2700K warm LEDs at 30-degree angles) enhances the dramatic chiaroscuro – a technique used prominently by Ibáñez’s teacher Federico de Madrazo.*
