About the Item

A colourful Impressionist seascape of Cap Corse by C Benali. The painting is signed bottom right and a location, Grischoni, Cap Corse, to the backboard. Presented in patinated silver coloured wood frame. A charming view of the iconic coastline of this Mediterranean island. The collection of brightly coloured buildings in the foreground surrounded by trees and vegetation leading down to the rugged coastline, the lapping waters of the sea and all under a blue sky the clouds being whipped along by the wind. Benali has captured the feeling of a windy summer's day at the coast, we can hear the waves, taste the salt, feel the wind on our faces. A lovely and captivating composition beautifully executed. Cap Corse is a 40 km long peninsula located at the northern tip of the island of Corsica. It is a region of Corsica with a unique geography, situated towards the Ligurian Sea. The peninsula is approximately 15 km wide and has an altitude of 1,324 meters. The area is known for its picturesque landscapes, beautiful beaches, and historical sites.

Expressionist Seascape, Bord de la Mer, Cassis, South of France
By Achille-Émile Othon Friesz
Located in Cotignac, FR
Mid Century Expressionist oil on canvas seascape of the Mediterranean coastline at Cassis in the South of France. The painting is signed bottom left but as yet undeciphered. Title to the rear stretcher. Presented in a fine gilt and patinated custom wood frame. This stunning seascape captures the raw, untamed beauty of a rocky coastline with impeccable detail. The painting uses a rich palette of blues and earthy browns to depict the tumultuous waves crashing against rugged cliffs. The artist's skilful use of texture and brushwork brings the scene to life, with the churning sea appearing almost animated in its movement. The contrast between the cool, turbulent water and the warm, solid rocks creates a dynamic tension, drawing the viewer's eye along the coast. Unique to this piece is the artist’s ability to convey the mood of nature’s relentless power while also highlighting the serene beauty of the ocean. The careful layering of colours and precise composition make this artwork a captivating interpretation of nature’s untamed forces. Some of the composition and use of colours is reminiscent of the works of Achille-Émile Othon Friesz...
