Description:
- Oil on cardboard of a navy with boats.
- It is signed and dated, and its manufacture is very good.
- Gabriel Cazals, born in the 19th century and died in the 20th century. We do not know his exact dates, but what we do know is that he was a pupil of Jean Paul Laurens (1838-1921), one of the last representatives of historical painting. A remarkable illustrator, the realism he breathed into his creations was combined with great erudition, an exceptional sense of mise-en-scène and a certain plastic freedom, far removed from the conventional.
- The painting shows a marina with several boats and a city in the background.
- The artistic quality and execution are very good. The small brushstrokes are very loose, which gives the oil painting a great liveliness.
- The painting is executed in a variety of colours. The signature is in red.
- The details of the oil and the handling of the colours are really magnificent.
