Vintage Mid-Century Modern Expressionist Landscape Oil Painting - Sea Catch

1950s

About the Item

SEA CATCH Size: 54.5 x 87 cm (including frame) Oil on Canvas A brilliantly executed and lively mid-century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas. In this scene, we see a group of three fishermen in a boat out at sea. They appear to have a net in their hands, awaiting for the catch of the day. The painting has been executed in an expressionist manner – the brushstrokes are visible and dynamic, moving in a myriad of directions and imbuing the painting with a sense of energy This painting would look perfect in a nautical-themed interior, or perhaps in a setting that is close to the sea. This oil on canvas is housed in a unique dark blue – green frame with an inner gilt border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age.

  • Mid-Century Oil on Canvas. Harbour scene. Farewell to the Fishermen.
    Located in Cotignac, FR
    Mid 20th century oil on canvas of a crowded harbour scene, showing the local fisherman or sailors saying farewell to their families before going to sea. The painting is signed bottom right but the artist remains as yet unidentified. A colourful yet slightly brooding and dreamlike painting. The figures are faceless and the shapes loose and undefined reminiscent of the works by Balthus who in turn was influenced by LS Lowry and his scenes of industrial districts. The colours are deep and glowing and the shapes of the figures are rounded giving a sense of warmth and evoking the quality of light seen at either dawn or dusk. Balthasar Klossowski de Rola (February 29, 1908 – February 18, 2001), known as Balthus, was a Polish-French modern artist. He is known for his erotically charged images of pubescent girls, but also for the refined, dreamlike quality of his imagery. Lowry is famous for painting scenes of life in the industrial districts of North West England in the mid-20th century. He developed a distinctive style of painting and is best known for his urban landscapes peopled with human figures often referred to as "matchstick men".
