El escultor Mauricio Tinoco (1906-1948)

Abstract

Este artículo ofrece un análisis detallado de la vida y obra del escultor Mauricio Tinoco (1906-1948), artista formado entre Los Santos de Maimona, Sevilla y más tarde Madrid, cuyo talento precoz se vio condicionado por una frágil salud que marcaría su trayectoria. El estudio repasa sus inicios junto a Joaquín Bilbao, su aprendizaje en la Escuela de Artes y Oficios de Sevilla y su progresiva consolidación como escultor especializado en el retrato, género en el que alcanzó su expresión más personal. Se examinan obras emblemáticas como Florillo, Adelita, Niña en meditación, Maternidad o la imagen de Sor Ángela de la Cruz, considerada su pieza más lograda por la naturalidad psicológica y el dominio técnico que evidencia. Asimismo, se destaca su reconocimiento oficial mediante la Segunda Medalla en la Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes de 1943, así como su participación en certámenes y encargos institucionales. El artículo aborda también su labor en la restauración patrimonial tras la Guerra Civil y su papel como profesor y miembro de la Academia sevillana. Pese a su muerte prematura, la investigación demuestra que Tinoco dejó una producción coherente, refinada y de notable sensibilidad artística, que lo sitúa entre los nombres más significativos de la escultura extremeña del siglo XX.

This article offers a detailed study of the life and work of Mauricio Tinoco (1906–1948), a sculptor trained between Los Santos de Maimona, Seville and later Madrid, whose early artistic promise was shaped by a lifelong condition of delicate health. The study revisits his apprenticeship with Joaquín Bilbao, his formation at the Seville School of Arts and Crafts and his gradual consolidation as a sculptor particularly distinguished in portraiture, the genre in which he achieved his most personal expression. Significant works such as Florillo, Adelita, Girl in Meditation, Maternity and the acclaimed figure of Sor Ángela de la Cruz—considered his finest piece for its psychological depth and technical mastery—are examined in detail. The article also highlights his official recognition with the Second Medal at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in 1943, along with his participation in exhibitions and institutional commissions. His contribution to heritage restoration after the Spanish Civil War and his academic role in Seville are likewise addressed. Despite his early death, the study demonstrates that Tinoco produced a coherent, refined and emotionally sensitive body of work, securing him a place among the most relevant sculptors of twentieth-century Extremadura.
