Víctor Patricio de Landaluze (1828 - 8 June 1889) was a Spanish-born painter active for much of his career in Cuba. He is the best-known Cuban practitioner of costumbrismo, depicting Cuba peasants (guajiros), landowners, and slaves. He taught at the Academy of San Alejandro in Havana, and served as its director. He opposed Cuban independence, an attitude reflected in his work; nevertheless his paintings provide a valuable view of nineteenth-century Cuban society. His works also depict a somewhat idealized view of plantation life.Good, likely re-bound with leather at spine some years ago, light soiling, bumped corners,front hinge starting withfive small pieces of modern Scotch tape added though need for them is unclear, back hinge cracked, no markings, scattered light foxing.
