Early 19th Century Oil-on-Canvas Marine Painting 'Les Plates of Villerville'

About the Item

We present you this rare and stunning marine oil painting dating back from the early 19th century. The painting captures a lively scene from Villerville, a coastal town in the French department of Calvados, as flat-bottomed boats, known as 'plattes,' venture out onto the tumultuous sea. The artwork depicts three of these sailboats bravely navigating the waves under a vast, blue sky amid dark clouds looming, and accompanied by a canoe behind them. Freshly restored, it reveals the bold colour contrasts and romanticism typical of First Empire artists. Measuring 105 centimeters in width and 72 centimeters in height, this painting would bring a touch of history and maritime adventure to any beautiful and luxurious interior.
