Description from the seller
Original oil painting on canvas, created in 1972 by Italian painter Adolfo Mastrovito (1940–2000). Measuring 70 x 50 cm, the work depicts a classic genre scene favored by the artist, focusing on the traditional, everyday work of fishermen. In the foreground, three male figures are shown concentrating on repairing fishing nets, surrounded by their tools on a sandy shore, with the sea in the background cutting horizontally across the composition. The style is distinguished by the use of warm, earthy tones for the figures and beach, in sharp contrast with the clear blue of the sea and sky. The painting is signed and dated both on the front, in the lower-right corner, and on the back, where the artist’s handwritten signature and year of creation are written in large letters directly on the unprimed canvas. The canvas, with a medium-coarse weave, is mounted on its original period wooden stretcher, fitted with corner tensioning wedges.
In excellent condition.
Carefully packed, trackable shipping.
