Description:
Watercolour, paper
17,7 x 25
Lower right - E.Dücker
Professor. Academician. Estonian painter. Eugen Dücker, a resident of Estonia and a professor of Düsseldorf Academy of Arts, was born in Kuressaare, where he acquired his basic training in art. Thus, it is only natural that an artist from island Saaremaa liked, above all, to paint the sea and coastal landscapes. In his realism, Dücker approached impressionism with the sheerness and sensitivity that are clearly visible in this masterpiece “Sailboats on an evening bay”. His landscapes reveal a careful observation of nature – this painting also hides a luminous sea surface under the darkening sky. The brushwork is economical and precise.
