OIL ON CANVAS STILL LIFE BY ADOLFO RUIZ ABASCAL (SPAIN)A still life on heavily textured canvas by Spanish artist and author ADOLFO RUIZ ABASCAL (1929 2012). The homely subject features fruit, a basket, and a draped white cloth arranged on a stone ledge. The traditional composition is informed by Cubist influence; the soft lighting produces realistic three dimensional effects. Not readily identifiable to us, the fruit in and around the basket may include pomegranates and plums or some other stone fruits

A still life on heavily textured canvas by Spanish artist and author ADOLFO RUIZ ABASCAL (1929-2012). The homely subject features fruit, a basket, and a draped white cloth arranged on a stone ledge. The traditional composition is informed by Cubist influence; the soft lighting produces realistic three-dimensional effects. Not readily identifiable to us, the fruit in and around the basket may include pomegranates and plums or some other stone fruits typical of central Spain. With its dark green skin, pale flesh, and oval shape, the large cut melon is likely a Piel de Sapo (toad skin). Signed at the bottom right and currently unframed.


ADOLFO RUIZ ABASCAL (1929-2012) was a Spanish painter and author. His artwork primarily concentrated on depictions of the landscapes and architecture of his homeland, particularly those of Toledo and the El Escorial region, where his cherished hometown of San Lorenzo was situated. His creative approach varied and is often characterized as Cubist-influenced.

While recognized for his achievements in the visual arts, Abascal was also a respected specialist in the natural habitat surrounding El Escorial, the large architectural complex northwest of Madrid, envisioned by King Philip II and built to function as royal residence, monastery, library, and mausoleum. Released in the 1990s, Abascal’s most notable publication, Del Entorno Escurialense (Of the Escorial Surroundings), detailed and illustrated the environment and historical context of the area. In its discussion of the various shades of color that nature offers to those who will pay attention, the book describes the yellow of the local botón de oro (buttercup) as “the perfection of yellow.”

Soft and cool. Very cool. 🧊
Size: Queen, Color: White
I bought these for my memory foam pillow and they’re excellent for cooling it. I use 2 of these on the pillow for maximum chill factor and it works. They’re very soft, the zippers are high quality. Easy to put on with a bit of stretch- generously sized. They’re stain resistant. I’m glad they’re NOT waterproof because they’d be too hot then. They’re very durable. Wash on delicate setting in a mesh bag and air dry and they last long. They’re very quiet- smooth and silky. Definitely recommend!

Cool enough
Size: Queen, Color: White, Size: Queen, Color: White
I thought I had purchased pillows so when I received these I was a little disappointed. However that was 100% on me for not reading the listing and just trusting my search. I decided to give them a try and so far they seem ok. They don’t stay cool even though I have them on cooling pillows. They are super thin but very soft. They fit on my pillows perfectly. I don’t think it has improved my sleep quality but it hasn’t made it any worse either. I don’t think they are waterproof but I don’t really want to test that. I like that the zipper is small and seems to be decent quality. Smelled heavily of chemicals when I first took it out of the package but that disappeared after a few minutes.

Great pillow!
Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
They were a gift for my daughter and she loves them! She says they are comfortable and "squishy" and she sleeps better on them.
