About the Item

Illegible signature Work on canvas Beige wooden frame With frame 85cm x 65 cm x 5.8 cm This painting depicts a portrait of a young boy, probably a fisherman, dressed in a dark coat and warm-toned scarf, contrasting with the freshness of the background. He wears a blue-gray pom-pom cap, giving him a picturesque, authentic air. His gaze, turned to the left, seems both gentle and contemplative, reinforcing the peaceful, melancholy atmosphere of the scene. The background reveals a Mediterranean village with red-tiled roofs and a calm sea, suggesting a coastal location. The diffused light and color palette used by the artist emphasize the warmth of the figure, while retaining a certain nostalgia typical of scenes of maritime life. The signature in the lower right, although not clearly legible, indicates a work executed with care by an artist attentive to the details of the portrait and the atmosphere. The pictorial treatment, notably the effects of matter and the nuances of light and shadow, underline a realistic approach, close to naturalism.
