About the Item
BY THE BLUE HORIZON
Size: 50.5 x 60.5 cm (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A serene and minimalist mid-century coastal landscape capturing the stillness of a solitary figure by the sea, executed in oil onto canvas.
The composition is anchored by vast horizontal bands of sand, sea, and sky – the painter reducing the scene to its essential forms and tonal contrasts. A woman in a red sunhat and blue swimsuit sits under a teal umbrella, her figure small against the expansiveness of the beach and ocean, evoking both solitude and quiet contemplation.
Rendered in a simplified modernist style, the artist has employed broad, smooth brushstrokes and a restrained palette – warm beige and brown tones for the sand, deep cobalt for the sea, and a luminous cerulean for the sky. The brushwork softens toward the horizon, creating a gentle gradient that enhances the feeling of distance and calm.
The painting’s simplicity and geometric balance are characteristic of mid-century coastal modernism, where atmosphere and mood take precedence over detail.
This oil on canvas is presented in a well-suited wood frame with a linen-lined border the complements the painting’s coastal tones. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
