==Life and work==<br />

Ramón Silva was born in [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]] in 1890. A self-taught painter, he learned the art beginning 1908 at the [[Studio|atelier]] managed by [[Martín Malharro]], whose display at a 1902 Buenos Aires art exposition introduced normally conservative Argentine audiences to the [[Impressionism|Impressionist]] movement. The promising student was sponsored by one of the nation's foremost physicians at the time, Dr. [[Luis Agote]], for a 1911 scholarship that took him to [[Paris]], where he received influences from the Post-impressionist artists then current in Europe, particularly [[Alfred Sisley]].<br />
<br />
Returning to Buenos Aires in 1915, his watercolors received little acceptance and were judged to be more akin to the Postimpressionist approach of artists such as [[Fernando Fader]] and [[Cesáreo Bernaldo de Quirós]] (the Nexos group), then still pariahs among most local critics. Preferring solitude, Silva worked mostly in and around the [[arboretum]] at [[Parque Tres de Febrero]], an extensive park in the Buenos Aires district of [[Palermo, Buenos Aires|Palermo]].<br />
<br />
Remaining in poverty, Ramón Silva contracted [[pneumonia]], which cost him his life in 1919 at age 28.<br />
