Fishermen at Low Tide, Oil on Canvas, Framed, 20th Century, Atmospheric Marine
Located in Genève, GE
A superb coastal landscape by C. Follini, signed, depicting fishermen and fisherwomen gathered along a windswept shoreline at low tide. Executed in oil on canvas and signed in the lower right corner, the painting is a remarkable example of late nineteenth- or early twentieth-century European marine painting, distinguished by its atmospheric light and expansive sense of space. The composition unfolds across a broad sandy beach where small groups of figures are engaged in the daily activities of a fishing community. Several boats rest on the shore while waves break gently along the coastline. Above, an immense sky filled with dramatic clouds dominates the scene, becoming the true protagonist of the composition. Through subtle tonal transitions and luminous passages of light, the artist masterfully captures the ever-changing atmosphere of the sea. Particularly striking is the treatment of the sky, which occupies a substantial portion of the canvas and lends the work a profound sense of openness and grandeur. Soft grays, silvery blues, warm creams, and muted ochres are orchestrated with remarkable sensitivity, creating a rich atmospheric effect reminiscent of the great traditions of Dutch, Belgian, and French marine painting. Rather than focusing on anecdotal detail, Follini emphasizes mood, weather, and the relationship between human activity and the natural environment. The small scale of the figures compared to the vast beach and sky reinforces the poetic dimension of the work, evoking both the beauty and the power of the coastal landscape. The artist's confident handling of paint is evident throughout the composition. Broad brushstrokes and subtle impasto passages animate the clouds, sea, and sand, while preserving a remarkable sense of unity. The restrained palette contributes to the painting's elegance and timeless appeal, making it both an important marine subject and a highly decorative work. Combining genre painting, maritime life, and atmospheric landscape, this composition embodies the enduring appeal of European coastal art. It would make a distinguished addition to a collection of marine paintings, maritime subjects, or nineteenth- and early twentieth-century European landscapes. A poetic and beautifully executed seascape celebrating the rhythms of coastal life beneath a magnificent sky. C.

Priest and Franciscan Monk Walking Among The Palatine Hill Ancient Ruins
By Olof Arborelius
Located in Stockholm, Stockholm
An oil study painted en plein air of a roman priest and a franciscan monk walking around among the old ruins of ancient Rome in the Palatine Hill near San Bonaventura al Palatino. Painted circa 1870-72 by Olof Arborelius (1842-1915). Signed with "OA". Oil on paper laid on cardboard. Olof Per Ulrik Arborelius, was a Swedish folk life and landscape painter and professor at the Royal Art Academy in Stockholm 1902–1909. After seven years of studies at the Royal Art Academy, Arborelius went on a three-year study tour in Europe. When he returned to Sweden in 1872, he was appointed agré at the Art Academy. For a few years he worked as a senior teacher there and at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. In 1902 he was appointed professor at the Royal Academy of Arts. Olof Arborelius was shaped by Swedish genre painting in the 1860s and was closely associated with the Düsseldorf School. He did join the opposition movement early on in the 1880s but was very little influenced by impressionist painting. In the choice of motifs, however, he adopted the free realism of his opponents. In later years, he developed increasingly brighter colors and a greater monumentality in the compositions. Descendants of the artist have on several occasions donated material to the Royal Academy of Arts. This includes several sketchbooks from his youth. In one of Olof Arborelius's sketchbooks it was found in 1998 that the artist had put several stamps on a sheet. The stamps, 22 in number, all come from different European countries and were issued in the 1850s. They were probably put in place in 1858, forgotten and remained untouched for 140 years. This is probably the oldest stamp collection in the world that remains in its original condition. Olof Arborelius was in Italy in the fall of 1870 to January 1872. There he mainly executed oil sketches painted plein air which are characterized by their small format and dissolved style where light and atmosphere play a decisive role. A number of these were exhibited at the memorial exhibition organized by the Swedish Artists Association in 1910 (no. 13-19, 60-87), at the Swedish-French Art Gallery in Stockholm, "Exhibition. Olof Arborelius. Oil paintings. Carl Eldh and Kai Nielsen Sculpture", April 1931 and at the memorial exhibition at the National Museum 11 February-10 March 1943 (no. 30-67). Viggo Loos, The breakthrough of outdoor painting in Swedish art 1860-85, 1935, p. 122 writes about these: "Alfred Wahlberg's and Gustaf Rydberg's pictures form an overture to our plein air painting. Arborelius's Italian studies, with their coloristic sensitivity and their intensive study of air and light, can rightly be included in that overture. In them, the artist reached an artistic peak under French influence.” In the catalog for the memorial exhibition of Arborelius at the National Museum in 1943, curator Folke Holmér wrote the following about Arborelius' oil studies from Italy: ´His sketches from the Mediterranean coast are among the most painterly in his early production and can easily measure up to the best that Swedish artists have achieved in Italy.' Three of Arborelius' Italian oil studies are in the National Museum's collections; View from Rome towards the Arch of Septimus Severus...
