Description: | Signed: yes Description: Dupré is best known for his depictions of marine scenes. In this painting, he depicts three fishing boats, spread out into the distance, sailing over an agitated blue-green sea. The choppy sea and the position of the boat in the foreground indicate windy conditions. The expansive sky is characterised by immense grey clouds, lightening around patches of blue, combined with the position of the boats, convey a mood of solitude. | Subjects: | marine | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Dupré, Jules (French painter and printmaker, 1811-1889) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8437... | Go to resource |
