"Birch, " Oil Paint on Olive Board

By Bruno Surdo

Located in Chicago, IL

Chicago-based fine art painter Bruno A. Surdo is classically trained in drawing and oil painting in the tradition of Renaissance masters. With strong command of the human form, Surdo creates dynamic compositions of people and places that communicate a rich commentary on the world around him. Depicting trees from personal encounters, Surdo’s latest body of work entitled “Tree Spirits” takes us on a foray into the forest, where leaves, branches and burls express something deeply personal. Applying his mastery of figurative realism to the natural world, he experiments with form and texture to uncover the intangible spirits of trees. Entitled “Birch,” this small-scale oil painting depicts a young birch sapling against an olive wood board. Restricting the composition to only a portion of the trunk, Surdo focuses on qualities that make the tree memorable - its narrow trunk...

Located in Genève, GE

A superb coastal landscape by C. Follini, signed, depicting fishermen and fisherwomen gathered along a windswept shoreline at low tide. Executed in oil on canvas and signed in the lower right corner, the painting is a remarkable example of late nineteenth- or early twentieth-century European marine painting, distinguished by its atmospheric light and expansive sense of space. The composition unfolds across a broad sandy beach where small groups of figures are engaged in the daily activities of a fishing community. Several boats rest on the shore while waves break gently along the coastline. Above, an immense sky filled with dramatic clouds dominates the scene, becoming the true protagonist of the composition. Through subtle tonal transitions and luminous passages of light, the artist masterfully captures the ever-changing atmosphere of the sea. Particularly striking is the treatment of the sky, which occupies a substantial portion of the canvas and lends the work a profound sense of openness and grandeur. Soft grays, silvery blues, warm creams, and muted ochres are orchestrated with remarkable sensitivity, creating a rich atmospheric effect reminiscent of the great traditions of Dutch, Belgian, and French marine painting. Rather than focusing on anecdotal detail, Follini emphasizes mood, weather, and the relationship between human activity and the natural environment. The small scale of the figures compared to the vast beach and sky reinforces the poetic dimension of the work, evoking both the beauty and the power of the coastal landscape. The artist's confident handling of paint is evident throughout the composition. Broad brushstrokes and subtle impasto passages animate the clouds, sea, and sand, while preserving a remarkable sense of unity. The restrained palette contributes to the painting's elegance and timeless appeal, making it both an important marine subject and a highly decorative work. Combining genre painting, maritime life, and atmospheric landscape, this composition embodies the enduring appeal of European coastal art. It would make a distinguished addition to a collection of marine paintings, maritime subjects, or nineteenth- and early twentieth-century European landscapes. A poetic and beautifully executed seascape celebrating the rhythms of coastal life beneath a magnificent sky. C.
