Description
Still Life with Lemons and Scales, Signed Aguado Roldán, Spanish School, 20th century
Oil on canvas. Dimensions 65 x 81 cm; frame 91 x 107 cm. A still life composition centred on an antique enamelled iron commercial scale, accompanied by metal counterweights and several lemons arranged on a neutral surface. The balanced arrangement of the elements creates a scene of great visual serenity, in which the weighing instrument takes on a sculptural prominence whilst the fruit provides a vibrant chromatic counterpoint with its intense yellow and green tones. The misty background, rendered with soft glazes and pinkish hues, creates depth and envelops the objects in a diffused light that enhances their volumes. The work demonstrates meticulous technical execution, with remarkable attention to textures, metallic reflections, and the material and luminous quality of each element. The precise brushstrokes and delicate modelling reveal a solid academic training rooted in the Spanish still-life tradition, reinterpreted through a contemporary language characteristic of 20th-century painting. The series stands out for its compositional refinement and the artist’s ability to transform everyday objects into images of great aesthetic and evocative power. Dimensions: 65 x 81 cm.
