Description from the seller
Boats by Master Galanti
In this canvas the master immortalizes a moment of everyday poetry: fishermen fishing by moonlight.
A leading proponent of the Posillipo school and of the 19th-century Neapolitan classical school, he reinterprets them in his absolute and highly personal style that makes him unique.
Dream and experimentation, technique and an unparalleled blend of colors characterize his works, which today are displayed in the most prestigious art galleries.
The scene is set in a sheltered bay. The true protagonist of the work is the reflection of moonlight: the moon’s glow lights up the sky and is reflected with incredible realism on the bay waters, creating a vibrant contrast with the deep shadows of the rocks.
This painting represents a timeless classic of Italian figurative art. Thanks to its versatile format (60x30 cm) and its extraordinary luminous charge, it is a work capable of warming and enhancing any environment, from the living room to the study. An ideal choice for collectors who love quality landscape painting. One notices the master’s excellent painting hand, always specialized in bringing sunsets of the Gulf of Naples and the Amalfi Coast into his paintings using warm and vivid colors, making the painting harmonious and elegant.
