Vase on canvas. Signed. Spanish School. 20th century - Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 62 x 33.5 cm. A vase decorated with red flowers is placed on a vibrantly saturated blue canvas, while other roses in pink and cream tones rest on the adjacent surface. The neutral background accentuates the chromatic contrast and the volumetric modeling of the flowers and the fabric. The meticulous realism and elegant composition reveal an academic background and a clear decorative intention. The work is signed by María Godoy, a Cádiz-born artist active in the early 20th century, whose output is situated in contemporary painting with nineteenth-century roots. Its delicate strokes, overall luminosity, and attention to detail connect it with the Spanish tradition of the floral still life, adapted to the bourgeois tastes of the period. This work combines compositional balance with a refined chromatic sensibility.
