Title:Stormy Seas off a Rocky Coast
Date: 19th century
Medium: Oil on board
Signature/inscription: Apparently unsigned
Image dimensions: 35 x 25 cm
Framed dimensions: 48 x 38 cm
Frame:
An atmospheric 19th-century British marine painting depicting waves breaking forcefully against a monumental rocky coastline. The sea and spray are rendered with energetic, heavily worked brushstrokes, contrasting with the dark mass of the cliffs and the muted, storm-laden sky.
The composition has a distinctly Romantic character, capturing the drama and sublimity of the British coastline during rough weather. It is presented in an ornate period-style gilt frame and fitted with high-quality Tru Vue conservation glass, designed to reduce ultraviolet exposure while providing clear protection for the painted surface.
Condition:
The painting presents well overall, with some paint loss, craquelure, surface wear and minor marks consistent with its age. There is age-related wear and some small losses to the gilt decoration of the frame. Please examine all photographs, which form part of the description. Further photographs and condition information are available on request.
