Oil on canvas - boats in the harbour, signed 1964

Charming oil on canvas dated 1964, depicting boats in the harbour in a soft and slightly misty atmosphere. This maritime scene captivates with its subtle light and delicately patinated tones – nuanced greys, calming blues, and mineral touches – evoking the tranquility of a morning by the sea. A work full of poetry, both simple and elegant. The painting is signed at the bottom left (signature to be deciphered, probably "P. Jaby") and presented in a superb antique carved and gilded wooden frame, richly ornamented. The whole offers a beautiful contrast between the simplicity of the subject and the character of the frame. Ideal for a seaside decoration, country house, or interior with a classic chic style. Overall in good condition. Some visible signs of age on the back, without affecting the aesthetics.
