IDENTIFICATION

1.1. Signature and attribution

The work appears signed in the lower right corner. The clearest reading allows recognizing the surname “Pérez”, followed by a second term that cannot be identified with sufficient certainty.

For this reason, the painting is offered as a Spanish School of the second half of the 20th century, without attributing it to a specific author.

1.2. Chronology and context

By its technique, color and free treatment of matter, the work can reasonably be located in the second half of the 20th century.

Its language connects with a luminous figurative painting, focused on simple courtyard scenes, nearby nature and daily life.

ARTISTIC DESCRIPTION

2.1. Composition

The scene shows a vegetal corner formed by pots, fleshy leaves and flowers in yellow, orange and reddish tones.

The composition concentrates attention on the richness of the foliage, letting the courtyard light enter from the right side and create depth among plants, vessels and shadows.

2.2. Light and color

The main attraction of the work lies in the intense use of color.

Deep greens, bright yellows, oranges and warm earth tones turn a domestic scene into a vivid and cheerful image. The brushwork is direct, with a visible material that brings freshness and spontaneity.

STYLE, SCHOOL AND CONTEXT

3.1. Late Post-Impressionism and luminous painting

The work is situated within a luminous post-impressionist figuration.

It does not seek an exact botanical description, but to convey the sense of light, warmth and color typical of a sunny courtyard. The painting is built through patches of matter, chromatic contrasts and a free observation of the subject.

3.2. Spanish School of the second half of the 20th century

The scene responds to a widespread tradition in post-war Spanish painting: small landscapes, interiors, flowers and everyday corners resolved with intense color and expressive brushwork.

The visible signature does not allow specifying authorship, but the sensibility of the work fits well within this pictorial context.

3.3. Decorative interest

It is a piece of friendly, cheerful format and especially easy to integrate.

The combination of warm flowers, green leaves and courtyard light brings vitality to domestic spaces, kitchens, wall galleries, studios or interiors with a taste for modern figurative painting.

CONDITION

4.1. Panel and painting surface

The work is in good overall condition.

There are slight signs of age, small surface irregularities and marks typical of the technique, not affecting readability or the chromatic strength of the overall piece.

4.2. Frame

The work is delivered with the frame corresponding to the indicated total measurements.
The frame is included as a courtesy of the gallery. Its age, stability, structural condition, fragility, previous restorations or future conservation are not guaranteed.

GUARANTEE, TRANSPARENCY AND SHIPPING

5.1. Prudential cataloging

The work is cataloged as Spanish School of the second half of the 20th century.
The signature is described partially, without turning an incomplete reading into a confirmed attribution. The stylistic reference is based on visual observation and does not constitute certification of authorship.

5.2. Photographs and description

The photographs are an essential part of the description and should be reviewed before making an offer.
Claims regarding visible aspects or explicitly described elements will not be accepted: partial reading signature, small irregularities, painting texture, panel characteristics, frame or normal signs of age.

5.3. Frame included as courtesy

The frame is included as a gift or courtesy from the gallery.
No claims, returns or requests for compensation related to its condition, age, fragility, wear, stability, previous restorations or aesthetic suitability will be accepted.

5.4. Packing and transportation

The work will be prepared by a professional packaging company, with custom protection, foam and insured international shipping.
Possible surcharges arising from shipments outside Euro zones 1 and 2, island destinations, remote areas, high-rate zones, non-EU countries or special logistical circumstances will be borne by the purchaser.

OVERVIEW

6.1. Everyday light

This work transforms a simple corner into a small celebration of light and color.
The flowers and pots do not seek to dominate: they simply preserve the warmth of a moment observed with joy and pictorial freedom.
