Terre & Mer

19th-century French School oil on wood panel. The work has texture to the touch.

This unique piece features two Impressionist landscapes side by side, representing both inland and coastal views. On the left, the inland scene depicts the edge of a city beneath a radiant sky with light piercing the clouds. On the right, the coastal scene showcases sailboats near a coastline anchored by a stone fortress. The contrasting landscapes play with volume, substance, and light, suggesting either different perspectives of the same country or two significant locations for the artist.
