Vintage Signed Italian Marine Harbor Scene Painting with Sailboats and Figures

$1,200

About

This mid-20th century Italian oil painting captures a dynamic maritime harbor scene with striking realism and vitality. Rendered on board and housed in an ornate gilt and black molded frame, the composition features turbulent coastal waters populated with tall-masted sailboats, figures embarking and disembarking, and richly layered cloud formations overhead. The brushwork is precise and confident, particularly in the detailing of the surf and rigging, while the color palette evokes the shifting light of an overcast day at sea. Signed indistinctly in the lower left, the work measures 23 inches wide by 19.5 inches high (including frame). The painting is in excellent vintage condition, with fine craquelure appropriate for its age and no visible losses. A lively seascape with echoes of 19th-century Romantic maritime traditions, this signed Italian work offers both decorative impact and technical finesse. Ideal for a study, library, or nautical-themed space.
