“Port à Venise” by Lasson
Oil on Canvas Signed
This stunning oil painting, “Port à Venise”, offers a vibrant and slightly impressionist portrayal of the Venetian harbour. The artist, Lasson, beautifully captures the light and movement of the scene with dynamic brushwork and a lively color palette that brings the iconic waterways of Venice to life. The loose yet expressive technique evokes the charm and romance of the city, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the port.
Signed by the artist, this piece is a perfect example of late 19th to early 20th-century oil painting, capturing the essence of Venice through an impressionistic lens. The canvas measures 33 cm in height and 46 cm in width and has undergone some very minor restoration work due to past accidents, though it remains an evocative and powerful addition to any collection. The painting is framed in a gilt slip and wooden frame. Condition: Good condition although the painting has been relined with some minor retouching due to age-related ware, preserving its visual appeal while enhancing its historical value.
