P. Stefani - Barques au crépuscule

Oil painting on panel by the French post-Impressionist artist Pierre Stéfani (born 1938)
The work depicts a lively seascape, characteristic of the artist's work: traditional brown-sailed boats beached on the sand at low tide, surrounded by silhouettes of fishermen or walkers. The brushwork is generous, developed in a palette of subtle and luminous tones (greys, ochres, off-whites), perfectly capturing the changing and poetic atmosphere of the Norman or Atlantic coasts.
