Description from the seller
Large-format oil on canvas depicting a harbor scene, focused on moored vessels and their reflections on the water surface. The composition is articulated through a close, fragmented framing that emphasizes the volumes of the hulls, the structural lines, and the plays of light and shadow. The artist pays special attention to color treatment and to capturing the reflections, resolved with a loose, nuanced brushstroke that adds depth and dynamism to the scene.
The work is rooted in the Spanish contemporary school, combining a recognizable figurative language with a modern pictorial interpretation, in which color and matter take on a leading role. The palette, dominated by greens, blues, and grays, is balanced with warm touches that enrich the marine atmosphere and reinforce the sense of calm and stillness of the port environment.
Oil on canvas. Spanish contemporary school. Large format. Dimensions: 72 x 115 cm.
