AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oil on canvas from the Spanish school of the 20th century, depicting an elegant floral still life consisting of a abundant bouquet of poppies and other wildflowers arranged in a light ceramic vase.

The work presents a balanced composition with a notable decorative effect, highlighting especially the contrast between the intense reds, oranges and yellows of the flowers and the sober gray‑green background. The lighting falls directly on the floral arrangement and the vessel, adding volume and depth to the scene.

The execution is characterized by a loose and expressive brushstroke, especially evident in the petals, where the artist employs impasto and quick brushstrokes of color to achieve greater richness of textures. The small floral details in blue and yellow add chromatic variety and dynamism to the composition.

The vase, treated with a much more restrained palette and a soft brushstroke, acts as a counterpoint to the intensity of the bouquet. Petals fallen onto the surface also introduce an attractive naturalistic detail.

The work appears signed in the lower right corner, although the signature could not be identified with certainty, so it is prudently catalogued as a Spanish school of the 20th century.

Oil on canvas.

The work is framed. The frame is included only as courtesy for the buyer and is not considered an integral part of the artwork, so any possible defect in it will not be grounds for claim.

The conservation status of the work is as can be seen in the photographs, which form an integral part of the description. It shows signs of age and use typical of a work from its period. It is recommended to carefully examine the images to assess its overall condition and possible wear, losses, craquelure, rubbing or interventions that it might present.

Packing will be carried out professionally and carefully to ensure maximum protection during transport.

Shipments to destinations outside the European Union may be subject to tariffs, taxes, duties and customs procedures, which will be the sole responsibility of the buyer. Due to customs procedures, delivery times to these destinations may be longer than usual.

Shipments to island or overseas territories may incur additional transport costs. In particular, for insular destinations outside continental Europe, it is advisable to check in advance the shipping conditions and possible additional costs.
