Daughters of Spain oil on canvas painting young woman
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: "Daughters of Spain"
Artist: Juan José Barreira Polo (1887-1957)
Medium: Oil on canvas
Dimensions: 31.5 x 27.5 in (80 x 70 cm)
Framing: Unframed
Signature: Signed at the lower left corner as "J. Barreira"
Period: Approximately first half of the 20th century
Movement/Style: Realist Costumbrismo, Spanish Academicism
Description of the Artwork
"Daughters of Spain" is a remarkable example of Spanish Costumbrismo, where Juan José Barreira Polo masterfully captures the essence of national identity and tradition. The painting portrays two young Spanish girls in traditional attire, exuding warmth and natural grace.
The older girl, with a gentle smile, wears a richly embroidered blue shawl and has flowers adorning her hair, while delicately holding a copper jug filled with vibrant orange flowers. Beside her, the younger girl, with an innocent and joyful expression, holds a doll dressed in red with floral embellishments, evoking the charm of childhood and cultural heritage.
The well-balanced composition and softly blurred background enhance the presence of the figures. Barreira Polo employs a warm color palette and skillful lighting to create harmony, while his refined brushwork and attention to detail in facial expressions and textiles reflect his academic training. The artwork conveys a profound sense of cultural pride and nostalgia for Spain’s rich traditions.
Artist’s Biography
Juan José Barreira Polo (Valencia, March 31, 1887 – Valencia, January 30, 1957) was a Spanish painter specialized in portraits and costumbrista scenes. Son of the painter Vicente Barreira Meliá, he trained at the Academy of Fine Arts of San Carlos in Valencia, where he obtained his degree as a drawing professor in 1933.
Throughout his career, he gained recognition for his representations of Spanish traditions and culture, receiving several awards at various exhibitions. In 1925, he won first prize in the Valencia City Council's poster competition. In addition to his pictorial work, he was an editorial board member of the magazine Semana Gráfica, contributing to the artistic and graphic culture of his time. His paintings, known for their exquisite detail and vibrant colors, are part of private collections worldwide and are admired for their ability to capture the spirit of Spanish heritage.

Holy Family St John Scarsella Paint 17th Century Oil on table Old master Italy
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Ippolito Scarsella, known as Lo Scarsellino (Ferrara, c. 1550 - 1620) workshop
Holy Family with the Infant St John
oil on arched panel 46 x 29 cm.
in a small temple frame 75 x 55 cm
This interesting work shows us one of the most sought-after iconographic subjects in the Christian tradition, presented here according to an ancient and proven scheme. We see the Virgin, majestic, in the centre of the scene while holding a chubby child, who is offering a small bird to the young St John (tradition has it that it is a goldfinch, one of the symbols of the passion of Christ) to be caressed.
Completing the Holy Family, we can see Saint Joseph in the shadows, apart from the loving everyday scene depicted in the foreground, calmly leaning on his walking stick.
Regarding the stylistic characteristics of this small panel, it is easy to recognise the influence of 16th and 17th century Emilian painting, which leads us to confirm its traditional attribution to Ippolito Scarsella (circa 1550 - 1620) from Ferrara, undoubtedly one of the most important artists of this pictorial context. It could very well be a trial sketch...

Woman Selling Fruit oil on canvas painting european art
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: Woman Selling Fruit
Author: Rosendo González Carbonell
Technique and Support: Oil on canvas
Dimensions: 31.9 x 25.6 in (unframed)
Period: 1970s
Style: Costumbrist realism with impressionist influences
Condition: Part of a private collection
Description of the Artwork
The painting portrays a woman holding a basket filled with fruit, notably apples and pears, focusing on warm and dark contrasts that add depth and realism to the composition. The artist creates an intimate atmosphere, skillfully manipulating light to highlight the woman's facial features and the textures of the fruit. The figure’s attire evokes a classical style, likely inspired by costumbrist themes.
Rosendo González Carbonell, renowned for his focus on traditional scenes and female figures, employs in this piece loose yet precise brushstrokes, creating dynamism that enhances the composition. The warm hues of the fruit and the serene expression of the woman reflect the artist’s intention to capture a moment of everyday life with sensitivity and expressiveness.
Author’s Biography
Rosendo González Carbonell (Barcelona, 1910 - 1984) was a Spanish painter recognized for his focus on female figures, portraits, and landscapes. He studied at the Acadèmia de Belles Arts de Sabadell under the mentorship of Mayoral and Antoni Alsina i Amils and also attended the "Llotja" art academy in Barcelona. He was a disciple of Bonaventura Puig Perucho and maintained a close friendship with painter Alejandro Huerta Lucas.
He participated in the National Fine Arts Exhibitions held in Barcelona in 1942 and 1944. His work reflects the tradition of Catalan painters such as Joaquim Mir and Santiago Rusiñol, as well as influences from impressionist masters like Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro. González Carbonell often depicted small villages, rural churches, and tranquil landscapes, balancing meticulous detail with impressionist brushstrokes that bring his compositions to life.
Similar Artists
González Carbonell shares artistic sensitivities with other renowned painters who captured the essence of landscapes and human figures through light and color:
Joaquim Mir: Renowned for his luminous interpretations of the Catalan landscape.
Santiago Rusiñol: Famous for his delicate depictions of rural scenes and local architecture.
