Signed Jean Lafon (lower left on both sides of the panel)
In Lumière du Soir sur l’Océan and Étude de l'Océan, Jean Lafon captures the iridescent glow of evening light dancing across the sea. Both pieces use expressive brushwork and a shimmering palette to display the shifting atmosphere of the Atlantic at dusk. The evening setting for these seascape paintings exemplify the artist’s skill at portraying maritime light and mood.
