Sailing Boats at Sea, A Very Large and Imposing Marine Capriccio, Oil on Canvas1941
1941
About the Item
Very large scale oil on canvas of a port marine scene. The painting is signed and dated bottom left Olio, 1941. The spelling of the artists name suggests they were Danish, Norwegian or Farnese. Presented in a fine period patinated wood frame, probably the original. This is a very large canvas on a good stretched canvas of quality and would have been an important commission in its day.
A large and imposing marine scene, probably a capriccio, incorporating various idealised elements of coastal and port life. To the far right a group of women in traditional Breton costume reminiscent of the paintings of Fernand-Marie-Eugène Le Gout-Gérard of Concourneau. In the distance an ancient village centred around a tall church spire. The far coastline is more reminiscent of the Italian lakes. The whole scene is 'peopled' by sailing and fishing boats both at sea and at anchor. Though the waters are calm the sky has clouds gathering and the portent of a potential storm. The artist has used colour and form to create a wonderful perspective to the scene that draws us in and makes the eye travel across a magical scene.
