Amparo is a 1904 oil by Isidre Nonell, held at Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya.
In the painting, a woman with dark hair is depicted wearing a reddish-brown shawl that covers her head and body. The background of the painting is a muted brown color. The woman's facial expression is somber, and her eyes seem to be cast downward. The brushstrokes used to paint her face and clothing are loose and expressive. This painting is a great example of Isidre Nonell's style, and it would be interesting to explore more of his work.
Isidre Nonell i Monturiol (30 November 1872 – 21 February 1911) was a Catalan artist from Spain known for his expressive portrayal of socially marginalized individuals in late 19th-century Barcelona.
