Lot 899: Jackie (20th Century), Maritime Harbour Scene at Dusk, Oil on Canvas, 1979
This original oil painting on stretched canvas depicts a maritime harbour scene at dusk. The composition features traditional masted vessels in the foreground with coastal architecture and a prominent tower silhouetted against a low sun in the background. The work is executed in a mid-century impressionistic style with heavy impasto and vigorous palette knife applications, creating a highly textured surface. The colour palette is restricted to warm ochre, sienna, and orange tones set against muted greys. The painting is signed and dated to the upper right corner Jackie 79. It is housed in a deep-profile, stepped mahogany-toned wooden frame with a gilded inner slip. Auction lot labels and handwritten tags are attached to the upper right corner of the frame.
