About the Item

Signed: A. Ríos – Spain, 19th century Dimensions: 68 x 43 cm (with frame) 49 x 24 cm (without frame) A magnificent 19th-century oil painting on panel signed by A. Ríos, depicting an intense maritime scene featuring Basque sailors rowing vigorously to reach the port of Santander, amidst choppy waters and a hectic atmosphere. The work is distinguished by its remarkable expressive power, with energetic brushstrokes capturing the movement of the sea and the physical exertion of the men on the boat. The composition conveys a sense of dramatic tension typical of coastal scenes from northern Spain. The treatment of contrasting light and color reinforces the drama of the seascape, while the background, which alludes to the Cantabrian coast, adds depth and geographical context to the scene. A painting of great documentary and artistic interest, representative of 19th-century maritime customs. Good condition.
