Antoni Rosich (1896 -1958) - El Barco Brillante

Title: The Bright Ship ㅤ School: European School (20th century) ㅤ Author: Antoni Rosich ㅤ Style: Maritime Impressionism ㅤ Technique: Oil on tablex ㅤ State: Good overall condition of preservation, with signs of aging and use appropriate to the period of the work. ㅤ Circle and artistic influence: The work is situated within the tradition of European maritime painting of the 20th century, with an impressionist character and a bold, visible brushwork. The treatment of Mediterranean light, the simplification of forms, and the use of blues, whites, and ochres suggest the influence of port and genre painting developed in the Mediterranean area for much of the 20th century. ㅤ Antoni Rosich develops in this work a direct and expressive view of the port environment, focusing on the monumental presence of the vessel and the effects of light on its hull and rigging. His pictorial language here is characterized by loose brushwork, thickened in certain areas and especially attentive to color contrasts. ㅤ The composition depicts a work vessel beached or moored in the foreground, viewed from a slightly offset frontal perspective. The hull, masts, lines, rigging and a large anchor dominate the scene, while small human figures provide scale and activity to the whole. In the background the sea opens up under a blue sky partly covered by light clouds. The quick, gestural brushwork imparts dynamism to the surface, while the luminous reflections on the boat justify the evocative character of the title, The Bright Ship. ㅤ The work is presented framed with a wide gold-finished frame, structured in several levels and stepped profiles. The frame shows signs of use, minor abrasions and occasional finish losses compatible with its age, and is visually separated from the painting by a light interior molding. ㅤ Observations: The work may incur damage during transport even with proper packaging. In that case, we will require photographs of the damages to proceed with compensation. Customer satisfaction is always our priority. ㅤ Exceptionally, shipping costs may be affected by a surcharge for reasons such as being outside a continental territory, excessive dimensions, or weight of the item. PremiArt will in no case cover this surcharge. ㅤ The courier that must cross the Swiss border can be much slower than normal, so if possible, to speed up processing, we will provide the customs number that is holding the shipment so that the customer can unlock it and reach its destination. Experience has shown this to be the most effective solution for both parties. ㅤ Due to the high volume of shipments, it is possible that the order is delayed by more than three days; we apologize and thank you for your patience.
