Study of Zephyrus for «The Triumph of Day over Night Preceded by Dawn»

Caba employed oil paint to capture the figure's movement and the subtle, gradient background, which adds depth. The overall technique conveys a sense of energy and dynamism, characteristic of the subject's mythological association with wind.

Created circa 1882 as a study for a broader thematic work, the painting is currently housed at the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, highlighting its significance within Catalan and Spanish artistic heritage.

While primarily known for realistic portraits, this work showcases Caba's versatility in exploring mythological themes through expressive, dynamic compositions.

As a study for a larger, presumably ambitious project, this painting provides insight into Caba's creative process and his interpretation of classical mythology in late 19th-century Spanish art.
