AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Basque School – Fishing Port of San Sebastián
20th century
Oil on canvas
Oil on canvas belonging to the Basque school of the 20th century, depicting a view of the San Sebastián fishing port, one of the most emblematic sites of the Cantabrian coast. The scene shows various boats moored in the foreground, with the port houses lined up in the background and the characteristic rocky relief framing the bay.
The work stands out for its very well-structured composition, in which the water channel guides the viewer's gaze through the boats, creating depth and dynamism. The treatment of the water and reflections reveals a loose and confident brushstroke, while the architecture and vessels are rendered with synthesis and pictorial sensitivity, without losing character or identity.
The color palette, dominated by deep blues, greens, and ochres, is fully representative of Basque painting tradition, evoking maritime life and the daily activity of the port. The overall atmosphere conveys a serene yet lively mood, accurately capturing the pulse of 20th-century maritime San Sebastián.
A work of great decorative value and notable artistic interest, especially attractive to collectors of Basque painting, port scenes, and recognizable views of San Sebastián. A piece with strong territorial roots and excellent visual presence, ideal for both private collections and exhibition.
