View of a harbor near a white city, with ships anchored offshore and lifeboats with passengers moving toward or away from them. Numerous figures enliven the scene, set at dawn, with the sun still low behind the clouds, its rays filtering through to illuminate the sky. Similar works are known by the painter Charles François Lacroix de Marseille (1700-1779), who worked extensively in Italy, establishing himself with his ideal views of the Mediterranean coast. Port views are a recurring theme, a synthesis of realism and ornamental taste, transcending classical landscapes and anticipating solutions of the Enlightenment and Romantic tastes. The painting has been restored and relined in the past. It is presented in a period frame.","brand":"Di Mano in Mano Co Uk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56319681429883,"sku":"ARARPI0320366","price":4717.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/3880\/2555\/files\/ARARPI0320366_1.jpg?v=1782947593","url":"https:\/\/www.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/products\/antique-painting-port-scene-oil-on-canvas-french-school-xviii-century","provider":"Di Mano in Mano Co Uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
