Seascape Moonlit view of Crimean bay 19th century Russian master Oil Painting

e.g. 1898

About the Item

Signed lower left: 'G. Kalmykov' - attributed Grigory Odisseevich Kalmykov (1873 - 1942), Russian landscape painter, graduate of the Imperial Academy of Arts. Spectacular Crimean Coastal moonlit view. The artist visually divides the painting into two parts - sky and water, separated by a mountain range. Thus, the artist conveys a feeling of anxiety, in anticipation of the calm before the storm. The sky is overcast with gray clouds, the excitement of the waves on the sea is already beginning. In the foreground, on the right, there is a two-masted ship anchored and unaware of the impending storm... To the left of it, in the distance, blurry features of the port city's lanterns are depicted. The main thing in this work is how the night seascape is painted, the play of light and shadow, the reflection of the moon from the sea surface, the depth of the night sky covered with clouds. Antique oil painting on canvas, signed, framed. Size app.: 40 x 63 cm (roughly 15.7 x 24.8 in), with frame ca 61 x 81 cm (roughly 24 x 31.9 in). Very good ready to hang condition, retouches, canvas relined, age wear, slight loss on the frame (see pictures). Please study good resolution images for overall cosmetic condition.
