View of a courtyard by Francis Luis Mora

Peering through two intricate horseshoe arches, we are transported into a sun-dappled courtyard where tall cypress trees sway around a central fountain. Francis Luis Mora uses loose, fluid watercolor washes to make the scene feel like a fleeting, dreamy memory of a Spanish garden rather than a rigid photograph. Born in Uruguay and working in America, Mora traveled extensively, and his work often celebrated the light and culture of the places he visited, bringing a vibrant touch to architectural studies.
