Waly Wutrich
Seen from a small port

About the Item

Work on canvas Gold and black wooden frame 41 x 54 x 4 cm This remarkable painting, a work signed by the artist Waly, depicts a seaside scene with a touch of peaceful melancholy. Captivating and striking, the painting immediately transports us to a picturesque little harbor, where boats of various sizes and shapes are moored on the edge of a beach. Shades of brown and gray dominate the color palette, giving the whole thing a soft and nostalgic atmosphere. The central boat, with its bright white painted hull, immediately attracts attention. Its masts, raised towards the cloudy sky, add a verticality contrasting with the horizontal lines of the landscape. Around it, other smaller boats rest on the sand, testifying to the daily maritime activity of the place. In the background, simple and humble fishermen's huts emerge, adding a touch of authenticity and realism to the scene. The sky, a nuanced gray, seems to promise an imminent downpour, reinforcing the feeling of calm before the storm. Waly's technique, with confident brushstrokes and careful attention to detail, conveys a serene mood while evoking the harsh reality of coastal life. This painting is not just a visual representation, but an invitation to feel and reflect on the personal stories, daily efforts and moments of tranquility that this port scene embodies.
