"Mendi Mendiyan" is a notable painting by the Basque artist Aurelio Arteta y Errasti (1879–1940), a prominent figure in the Spanish art scene of the early 20th century. The title, which translates to "On the Mountain" in Basque, reflects Arteta's deep connection to the Basque Country and its cultural landscape. Created in 1932, this work is often highlighted as one of Arteta's masterpieces, encapsulating his mature style that combines elements of traditional Basque art with the modernist trends of his time.

The painting depicts a group of Basque peasants on a mountainous terrain, engaged in what appears to be a moment of rest or social interaction. Arteta's composition is characterized by a harmonious blend of naturalistic detail and stylized forms, with a strong emphasis on the solidity of the figures and the ruggedness of the landscape. The earthy color palette and the play of light and shadow contribute to the sense of weight and volume, while also evoking the harshness and beauty of the Basque highlands.

"Mendi Mendiyan" is not only a reflection of Arteta's artistic prowess but also an expression of his cultural identity. Through his art, he sought to preserve and celebrate the customs, traditions, and spirit of the Basque people, which were under threat during a time of political turmoil and social change in Spain. The painting is emblematic of Arteta's commitment to regionalism and his desire to create a modern art that was deeply rooted in local heritage.

The work is held in high regard for its aesthetic qualities and its cultural significance, representing a bridge between the past and the present, and between the local and the universal. "Mendi Mendiyan" remains an important piece in the study of Basque art and is frequently exhibited in art museums and galleries that showcase Spanish and Basque art from the period.
