Description: An analysis and interpretation of the extraordinary painting legacy of painter Miguel Díaz Vargas (b. Colombia 1886-1956), a recognized "costumbrista" painter who studied in Spain and who won the gold medal of the Ibero American Exhibition in Seville in 1929. The book is the result of the curatorial research project ": Taller Historia Crítica del Arte" lead by professor William López Rosas, who along reconstructing the historical and artistic context around artist Díaz Vargas, establishes an analytical guideline when proposing a new lecture of the artist in the framework of the naturalist and neo-costumbrista painting movement.
