The Gallery's Perspective
There’s an urgent, joyous movement in these two figures that feels like a single breath caught between dusk and night. Their dresses sweep and fold like wind-driven waves, one gown carrying rich cobalt that deepens into a glossy black as it flows, the other echoing that darkness while revealing soft, pale porcelain skin. The sculptor has given each woman a distinct posture—one poised and pulling back, the other leaning forward as if already stepping into the evening—and that gentle difference creates a playful push-and-pull, a story of companionship and momentum without a single word. Light skims the polished surfaces, emphasizing the sinuous curves of fabric and the quiet serenity of their faces; the contrast between the luminous skin and the deep, reflective gowns heightens the feeling of night arriving. It’s a work that feels both elegant and alive, a graceful celebration of movement and the instant just before something beautiful happens.
The Artwork
About Night Approaches
Night Approaches. Two beautiful young women are rushing headlong into the night with their evening dresses billowing voluptuously around them. It is the coloring of the dresses that tells us where the two mysterious ladies are headed. As they advance the blue turns darker, so much so that in the end it is almost black. Sculptor: Alfredo Llorens, Release year 2013, Limited edition certifed, Lladró Assurance included

Lladro was founded in 1953 when Juan, Jose, and Vicente, three brothers born of local farmers and endowed with great artistic talent, formed a small family company in the Valencian village of Almacera, Spain. Since then, Lladro has undergone an amazing metamorphosis from an artisan workshop to a huge firm of international scope enjoying continual growth. The company management has remained in the hands of the Lladro family, the owners of the firm, since its inception.
The creative team started out by adapting styles from past eras, but it was not long before certain characteristics appeared that would soon shape what was to become the unique Lladro style.
