Old marine painting – Oil on panel signed Léo Spanoghe

Charming oil on panel depicting a seascape at low tide, with stranded sailing boats and cliffs bathed in the light of the day's end. The work is signed in the bottom right by Léo Spanoghe (1874-1955), a renowned Belgian painter of the Termonde School, particularly appreciated for his landscapes, seascapes, and views of the Scheldt. This composition perfectly illustrates his post-impressionist work, where light and reflections on the water play a central role. The painting is presented in its superb antique wooden and gilded stucco frame, which admirably highlights the work. The frame shows authentic patina as well as some cracks and minor wear related to its age, without detracting from its charm. External dimensions: * Width: 57 cm. * Height: 37 cm. Condition: Very good overall condition. The painting is well preserved with a beautiful texture. Signature visible. Antique frame with signs of use and cracks in the gilding, consistent with its age. A decorative work of quality, ideal for a classic interior, seaside home, or country house, while being signed by an artist referenced in the art market. Works by Léo Spanoghe regularly appear in public sales, with estimates varying according to the subject, format, and condition.
