European school (XX) - Jarrón floral

Title: Floral Vase

School: European School (20th Century)

Style: Academic Realism

Technique: Oil on board

Centerpiece floral composition focused on a transparent crystal vase housing four roses in different stages of opening, in shades of red, pink, and ivory white. The flowers emerge with volume and delicacy against a dark background tinged with soft greenish fabric folds, which add depth and contrast to the scene.

The painting technique reveals a meticulous execution, especially in the chromatic gradation of the petals and in the light reflections on the glass vase, where transparencies and refractions are carefully worked. Lateral lighting highlights textures and creates an effect of chiaroscuro that emphasizes the naturalism of the whole.

Work dated 1942 and signed, although the signature could not be identified with certainty. It is situated within the European realist tradition of the mid-20th century, preserving the technical heritage of the classic still life.

It features a molded wooden frame in walnut tone, with simple lines and a stepped section. The finish is smooth, with a slight patina appropriate to its age, contributing sobriety and visual balance to the composition.

Observations:
Good overall condition for its age. There is surface dirt on the protective glass and slight signs of use on the frame.

Measurements:
53 x 48.5 cm (with frame)
42.2 x 37.7 cm (without frame)
