Grande battaglia navale - XL format, 1950–1960, oil painting, Netherlands, sold with frame.
Description from the seller
Exceptionally without reservation!
An imposing, large-format oil on canvas depicting a naval battle between majestic vessels under full sail, captured in the heat of battle on the open sea. The work exudes extraordinary visual power: high, turbulent waves, cannon smoke enveloping the ships, flags flying, and sumptuous, finely decorated hulls. A powerful narrative, this painting recounts the epic allure of ancient European fleets.
The composition is dynamic and engaging: the moving sea, the beams of light piercing the clouds, the ships advancing or lurching amidst explosions and gusts of wind. The colors are intense and rich in contrast, with a patina of time that lends the work further historical appeal.
The whole thing is enriched by a splendid worked gilded frame, consistent with the classical style and perfect for enhancing a painting with a strong decorative and collectible impact.
Photographs taken under direct spotlight light to highlight the materiality, details, and movement of the scene.
Fast, professional shipping with extremely careful packaging; hence the related shipping costs.
In compliance with current regulations on works of art, no lots will be shipped outside Europe (Schengen area), except by private agreement with extra costs entirely borne by the buyer.
