Adolfo Guiard

Adolfo Guiard Larrauri (10 August 1860 – 8 March 1916) was a Spanish painter in the Impressionist style.

The family was generally well off, but suffered hard times after his father's studio burned as the result of a shelling during the Third Carlist War.

[2] In 1878, he went to Paris, where he was able to enroll at the Académie Colarossi and study with Léon Glaize who declared that he was a "born painter".

[2] The initial critical responses were largely negative, but his work was praised by Miguel de Unamuno.

Around 1900, he lived briefly in Deustu and participated in the first exhibition of modern art, held in Bilbao, which made his work more popular despite continuing negative reviews.
