Description Several small sailing vessels move diagonally across a restless sea, their dark hulls and reddish sails angled sharply into the wind. The water fills most of the composition, rendered in layered strokes of turquoise, blue and pale green that suggest the movement of waves. Towards the horizon, additional boats appear as reduced silhouettes against a pale band of sky. The viewpoint is set close to the waterline, placing the viewer within the shifting surface of the Channel. Brushwork is loose and directional, with colour laid in broken touches that articulate both sea and sail. Painted in 1935, this work belongs to Maximilien Luce’s late maritime subjects, executed during periods spent along the northern French coast, where fishing craft and working boats provided recurring motifs within his broader landscape practice.
