About the Item

This luminous oil painting by William R. Davis captures a fleeting moment of peace and stillness at the close of day. Titled Becalmed, the composition is masterfully restrained. A sailboat drifts on motionless water under the warm glow of a setting sun, its mast slack in the quiet air. The golden light saturates the sky and softly reflects off the water’s surface, lending the scene a gentle radiance. A single bird glides across the foreground, adding a touch of movement to the tranquil landscape. Davis is celebrated for his ability to evoke mood and atmosphere through his Luminist technique, a modern continuation of the American 19th-century tradition. This work exemplifies his attention to light, horizon, and reflection. Becalmed is not only a meditation on nature’s quiet power but also a testament to Davis’s enduring technical skill. In fantastic condition, this piece holds the contemplative stillness that collectors of fine marine art will recognize and cherish.
