Large oil on canvas "Mediterranean Sea" signed Louis Audrey

Large oil on canvas signed by Louis Audrey, depicting a lively Mediterranean port scene with fishing boats featuring ochre and red sails. The panoramic composition is bathed in beautiful light, with significant texture work done with a knife, offering magnificent impasto and great depth. This work perfectly illustrates French decorative painting from the 1960s, where light, reflections on water, and texture are highlighted. The reliefs of the painting capture the light and give the artwork a strong presence. Louis Audrey is an artist referenced in the art market with several appearances in public sales. A marine of identical dimensions (100 × 50 cm), signed by the artist and dated around 1960, has notably been offered by a specialised gallery. Painted and patinated wooden frame, in very good overall condition despite a few tiny losses in the canvas (photos). Canvas dimensions: 100 × 50 cm. Dimensions with frame: 114 × 64 cm.
