Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

Descripción de la obra
Esta imponente composición coral representa a un grupo de campesinos descalzos posando con naturalidad ante el espectador. En el centro, una niña sonriente sostiene una vasija de barro, mientras un perro de aspecto bonachón recibe con afecto su caricia. A su alrededor, hombres y mujeres de distintas edades —algunos con niños en brazos— completan una escena que destila humanidad, dignidad y arraigo. Al fondo, una mula con expresión serena se integra al conjunto, reafirmando el entorno rural.
La paleta está dominada por ocres, tierras y rosados, con pinceladas gruesas y vibrantes que aportan textura y emoción. Los rostros, de marcado carácter expresivo y proporciones ligeramente estilizadas, son sello distintivo del artista. La composición transmite una visión idealizada y tierna del mundo campesino, sin caer en la condescendencia ni en la nostalgia vacía.
Breve biografía del autor
Jesús Villar (Segura de la Sierra, Jaén, 1930 – 2015) fue un pintor español conocido por su estilo realista expresivo centrado en la figura del campesino universal. A lo largo de su vida residió y trabajó en distintas regiones de España (Andalucía, Castilla, La Mancha, Santander, Vizcaya), así como en países como Italia, Suiza y Venezuela. Su obra, de fuerte carga simbólica y humana, ha sido expuesta en ciudades como Madrid, Roma, Nueva York y Oslo.
Villar se especializó en escenas rurales, maternidades y retratos colectivos, en los que combinaba una paleta cálida con rostros profundamente humanos. Su pintura es una celebración de la vida sencilla, de los vínculos familiares y de la dignidad del trabajo campesino.
Jesús Villar (1930–2015) was a Spanish painter born in Segura de la Sierra (Jaén). His work is deeply rooted in rural life, depicting what he called the “universal peasant” — human figures that could belong to any Mediterranean village.
He lived and worked across various regions of Spain, including Castilla, Andalusia, La Mancha, Santander, and the Basque Country, as well as in Italy, Switzerland, and Venezuela, experiences that enriched his artistic language.
Villar exhibited widely, both in national events like the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid and internationally in cities such as Rome, Milan, Biarritz, Oslo, and New York.
