Post Impressionist Sea Scape - Signed

Title
Coastal Seascape by C. Pons Arnau

Description
The artist has captured the raw vitality of the Mediterranean coast in this expressive oil painting, showcasing a rugged shoreline lashed by rhythmic waves. Executed with confident brushwork and a richly pigmented palette, the composition balances dynamic movement in the foreground surf with the stable mass of forested cliffs beyond. Shades of deep cobalt and verdant green contrast against pale foam and rust-toned rock, evoking a palpable sense of sea spray and sun-drenched stone. Arnau’s technique—loose yet deliberate—hints at both post-impressionist and early modernist influences, blending gestural energy with structured form.  This work speaks to a broader 20th-century Catalan tradition that celebrates landscape through bold, painterly abstraction and intimate observation of place.
