Graphite on paper drawing where another view of Plaza de la Lealtad, in Paseo del Prado (Madrid), is represented. The leafless trees on the left make clear the winter season while the blurred tree masses in the distance give a special atmosphere to this detailed drawing. There is a fence from left to right and behind it the bustle of the street, a kiosk, some cars and, even the Monumento a los Caídos por España (a war memorial) on the upper right side, are perceived.

The signature is on the lower right side and says “A. López Torres. II 1970”.

Donated by Antonio López Torres in a public deed, 27.10.78.
