Eugenio Hermoso

Hermoso was a student of Gonzalo Bilbao and José Jiménez Aranda in Seville.

In 1904, he won the bronze medal at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts with La muchacha haciendo media,[2] which was acquired by the Museum of Cádiz.

His painting of "some rosy-pink peasant women carrying pumpkins and chickens and seen against the background of a setting sun" won much acclaim.

In 1905, he exhibited El Colegio e Hijas del terruño at the Exposición del Círculo de Bellas Artes which was praised by Francisco Alcantara and José Francés and also traveled to Paris and Brussels.

During the Spanish Civil War (1936–39), he befriended the painters Fernando Labrada and Francisco Prieto Santos.
