The North Sea, oil painting of a sailing boat on rough sea

Marine Study, c. 1905

The North Sea

AED 2,850

This is not a polite seascape. The horizon is compressed beneath a heavy sky and the water moves in short, opposing strokes. White paint is dragged across darker layers to make broken foam rather than carefully drawn waves. The artist is not yet identified, but the method is unmistakable: fast, physical and alert to changing weather. Its small size concentrates the force of the scene, making the sea feel closer and less predictable.
