The Bay

19th-century Italian School oil on canvas signed lower right (illegible). The work is smooth to the touch.

A captivating Romantic Landscape where we can see a young man and his dog at the bottom left observing a woman approaching in the center. The red skirt and the light on her path make her the central protagonist of the landscape. The beauty of the bay accentuates the moment and tells a story of life along the sea on the Italian coast.
