"The Harbor of Dieppe" №16642
Art. number: 16642
Description
The picture was created in 1826.
Dieppe Harbour (on the coast of Northern France) at the beginning of the nineteenth century was a bustling commercial hub. Turner delights in capturing the throng, populating the waterfront with crowds of people going about their daily business, some industrious, others less so. To the right, a sluice flows into the sea through an outlet on the harbour's wall reminding us of the polluting effects of the crowd’s activities, a point intensified by the numerous empty bottles of alcohol littered on the harbour’s edge.
He painted the sun twice in Dieppe, as a ball of white fire in the sky, and as a slightly muted reflection in the water below. As usual, Turner's critics were baffled by his daring, though one sensitively admitted that "amidst all this glitter and gaud of colors, it is impossible to shut our eyes to the wonderful skill, and to the lightness and brilliancy which he has effected."
Reproduction is a high-quality eco-ink printing on an Italian canvas. The canvas is covered up to 30x40 cm on a solid back. If larger than this size is stretched on the subframe. Whatever size you choose, you will always get it arranged in a suitable frame (as in the picture).
