Description:
An evocative coastal watercolour by John Steane (b.1931), inscribed on the reverse as “Welsh Coast 1985.” This atmospheric seascape depicts a dramatic and windswept section of Ireland’s western shoreline, with rocky strata in the foreground leading the eye toward a hazy horizon of mist-shrouded cliffs and distant mountains. The rolling tide is painted in muted layers of grey, indigo, and violet, subtly capturing the shifting light of a clouded sky over the sea.
The artist’s distinctive use of contour line gives the rocks a rhythmic, graphic quality, contrasted beautifully by the softness of the distant land and sea. Hints of seaweed greens and russet browns add texture and depth to the foreground, suggesting a tidal zone rich in natural colour and movement.
Likely inspired by Steane’s travels along the Wild Atlantic Way—possibly County Clare or the Donegal coast—this piece reflects a deep sensitivity to place and elemental drama. It is a compelling addition for collectors of Irish landscape painting, contemporary seascapes, or postwar British watercolours with expressive flair.
A quietly powerful composition that balances formal structure with emotional resonance, and would complement both traditional and modern interiors.
