About the Item
This captivating mid 19th century oil on canvas depicts a touching maritime scene along England's Sussex coast, renowned for its dramatic white chalk cliffs and centuries-old fishing traditions. The painting masterfully captures the emotional moment when fishermen return home at low tide after their daily catch, greeted by their families on the sandy shore. The composition demonstrates characteristics of the Romantic movement's later phase, where everyday life became elevated to artistic subject matter. The chromatic palette reveals influence of Dutch maritime masters, particularly in the treatment of atmospheric perspective and the subtle gradations of grey-blue tonalities that characterize the English Channel's mercurial weather patterns. The artist's handling of light demonstrates competent understanding of plein air techniques, with diffused illumination creating unified tonal harmony throughout the composition.
This unsigned work represents the rich tradition of British maritime art from the Victorian era, when such scenes celebrated the hardworking fishing communities that sustained coastal towns.

Located in Stockholm, SE
Attributed Charles François Grenier de Lacroix or Charles - François Lacroix de Marseille (1700 - 1782) as signed lower left on the stone “Lacroix”. The scene of the departure of nobles on a ship, somewhere among the Mediterranean landscapes at sunrise. Lacroix's sense of color and attention to detail are particularly impressive: the sea is calm, the sun is rising and as a soft pink hue begins to emerge in the clouds, the morning haze has not yet cleared and the air is clear and clean, large ship...

Pink Sunset in Winter Birch Forest Giant Landscape early 20 Сentury Oil Painting
Located in Stockholm, SE
An impressive painting in size and execution, a frosty winter day in a birch grove with a small pond. The orange-yellow sunset reflected on the surface of the pond creates the illusion of bizarre reflections. The frosty haze that has enveloped the forest intertwines with the approaching twilight, enhancing the sense of depth and atmosphere. On the right we see a traveler returning from the forest with an armful of brushwood on his back. In the distance a small flock of birds flies in, alarmed by something, bringing a sense of movement to this scene. The contrast of bright and cold shades creates an atmosphere of calm and silence...
