Dated 1872 - Antique Maritime Oil Painting of Cancale in Brittany
Dated 1872, This French antique oil painting is painted on wood panel and depicts the Brittany coast. This 19th-century marine painting captures the bustling oyster port of Cancale, with Mont-Saint-Michel rising faintly in the distance across the bay. Fishermen guide their small boats across calm green waters, the sails of larger vessels visible beyond. The artist heightens the drama of the bay by elongating the Mont St. Michel abbey’s spire, emphasising its Gothic presence against the misty horizon. Rustic houses line the shore, anchoring the scene in everyday life. Painted in 1872, this work reflects the romantic fascination with Normandy and Brittany’s coasts, where working ports, tidal light inspired both realism and imagination in equal measure. This antique coastal painting has been to the restorer for a professional cleaning and new varnish applied. It is in good vintage condition. Ready to be hang, and to be enjoyed for generations. This original antique oil painting would be great in a living room or as boys room decor. This antique coastal painting is good vintage condition. Ready to be hang, and to be enjoyed for generations.
