About the Item
Watercolor painting by Stephane Magnard of a harbor on the coast of France. This atmospheric maritime scene captures a row of dark wooden pilings stretching across the harbor, their silhouettes reflected in the rippling water below. The background reveals industrial port elements including cranes and ship masts silhouetted against a moody sky rendered in muted blues and browns. The watercolor technique is loose and expressive, with the artist using wet-on-wet methods to create subtle color transitions in the sky and water. The composition is horizontally oriented, with the strong vertical elements of the pilings creating a rhythmic pattern across the middle ground. The overall mood is contemplative and industrial, capturing the working character of a harbor at twilight. The artist's handling of light and reflection demonstrates considerable skill in the watercolor medium, particularly in the way the water's surface is suggested through minimal but effective brushwork.
Original artwork on paper displayed on a white mat with a gold border. Mat fits a standard-sized frame. Archival plastic sleeve and Certificate of Authenticity included. Artwork, 21"W x 14.5"H; mat, 30"W x 24"H.
