Title
Rocky Coastline & Shimmering Water – Ferran Martí, Oil on Canvas

Description
This captivating coastal landscape by Ferran Martí (b. 1943) transports the viewer to a moment of stillness at the water’s edge. Bathed in the glowing Mediterranean light, the scene captures the craggy rock face rising majestically above calm, crystalline waters. Martí’s brushwork exquisitely renders the interplay of reflected light and rocky texture, blending naturalism with impressionistic finesse.

Painted in delicate shades of sand, chalk white, slate, and sea green, the water’s surface mirrors the cliff’s mass in quiet rhythm. The lower portion shimmers with layered strokes that hint at movement—like the glint of sunlight on ripples—evoking a serene emotional presence. Whether displayed in a coastal home, modern gallery wall, or refined interior, this work will lend elegance and tranquility to its surroundings.

Housed in an ornate vintage frame that complements the painting's tonal palette, this is an original and timeless Mediterranean vista by a recognized Spanish artist, rich in atmosphere and painterly detail.
