Coastal Landscape with Fishermen

Home/Collections/Coastal Landscape with Fishermen

The compositional scheme of this landscape is reminiscent of the work of Salvatore Rosa in the motif of the mountain, which cuts the veduta diagonally and is depicted in silhouette, in contrast to the sky. The accurate treatment of the clouds is modelled on Tempesta.
