ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "SANCTUARY OF THE SEA"
⚜ Oil on canvas ⚜ Hand signed on verso ⚜ Frameless display
MYTHIC SEASCAPE WITH FANTASTICAL ARCHITECTURE
In Sanctuary of the Sea (2015), Robert Kenneth White presents a visionary coastal realm—part ancient city, part imagined utopia. Classical domes and soaring towers rise from lush hillsides and rugged cliffs, their golden light and crisp detailing reminiscent of both Mediterranean antiquity and high fantasy world-building. Rich sapphire waters lap against stone piers as a sailboat makes its way through the tranquil harbor, offering a sense of scale and serenity.
Executed in oil with White’s signature attention to atmospheric color and architectural clarity, this large-format landscape blends historical evocation with imaginative escape. The composition feels cinematic and immersive, balancing realism with reverie—inviting comparisons to romantic illustrators like Maxfield Parrish, the architectural surrealism of Simon Stålenhag, or the coastal visions of classical landscape painters.

Robert Kenneth White "Tranquility" 2021 Oil of Mediterranean Garden Scene
Located in Miami, FL
ROBERT KENNETH WHITE – "TRANQUILITY"
⚜ Oil on canvas ⚜ Hand signed lower left ⚜ Frameless display
ARCHITECTURAL GARDEN STUDY IN SUNLIT STILLNESS
In Tranquility, Robert Kenneth White captures a moment of quiet illumination in a Mediterranean-style garden. A classical terracotta urn rests amid wildflowers and trimmed hedges, framed by palm fronds, stucco walls, and pale blue shutters. The painting balances bright floral textures with deep shadow, inviting viewers into a peaceful courtyard retreat.
As the artist reflects, “This painting was inspired by the timeless beauty of southern France, and the wonderful homes that one finds there.” That inspiration shines through in both the subject and atmosphere—an evocation of warmth, elegance, and enduring charm.
Known for his mastery of architectural scenes and natural light, White renders this composition with both structural clarity and painterly softness. The glowing focal point and contrasting cool shade exemplify his skill at evoking calm and stillness through light and design.
