Description:
- Oil on panel of an arid landscape.
- It is signed, dated and numbered, with a very good workmanship.
- The author, Rogelio Gil Serna, born in Murcia, was a musician and painter, having made fifty exhibitions during his career. His collection includes female figures, still lifes, landscapes, portraits and aspects of bullfighting.
- The painting depicts an arid landscape with several small mounds and large snow-capped mountains in the background. There are several dry trees.
- The artistic quality and execution is good. The medium-large brushstrokes are very loose, which gives the oil painting a great liveliness.

- In the lower left corner he has in Roman numerals the number 72, his signature, and '76, alluding to the year 1976.
