Juan Álvarez CebriánFaro Barra do Douro I
About the Item
At the mouth of the Duero River stands the Farolim da Barra do Douro in Portugal. In this perspective, the painter presents the lighthouse on the Portuguese coast under the warm light of sunset. The viewer's gaze naturally moves towards the lighthouse, positioned at a golden ratio point, contrasting with the diagonals that guide the eye visually. The atmosphere suggests tranquility, enhanced by a soft color palette: blues of the sea, blending with pinks and salmon hues of the sky, merging into yellows and pale blues. The painter avoids depicting figures, focusing on the architecture of the promenade and the calmness of the sea, capturing a unique solitude and serenity. This work is part of a series of three pieces with different compositions of the lighthouse, light, and color.

From this elevated viewpoint, Adams portrays the location known as Cathedral Cove with its outcropping spires and massive kelp beds that hug the shoreline. The peak of the middle island of Anacapa is visible in the distance, and further out to sea is Santa Cruz Island...
