Old painting signed Roger de la Corbières – Seascape in the moonlight

Superb painting by the French painter Roger de la Corbière, renowned for his poetic landscapes and seascapes. This work depicts a moonlit seascape: a cloudy sky illuminated by the moon, whose silvery reflections rest on the calm sea where a few boats float. The composition exudes a soft yet mysterious atmosphere, characteristic of the artist's style. The work is painted on a panel and presented in its gilded carved wooden frame with floral decoration. Some minor wear (frame and panel corners), but the overall condition remains beautiful. Panel: 55 x 46 cm. With frame: 72 x 62 cm. Roger de la Corbière (1893-1974) is a French painter appreciated by collectors; his seascapes regularly appear at auction.
