A superb coastal landscape by C. Follini, signed, depicting fishermen and fisherwomen gathered along a windswept shoreline at low tide. Executed in oil on canvas and signed in the lower right corner, the painting is a remarkable example of late nineteenth- or early twentieth-century European marine painting, distinguished by its atmospheric light and expansive sense of space. The composition unfolds across a broad sandy beach where small groups of figures are engaged in the daily activities of a fishing community. Several boats rest on the shore while waves break gently along the coastline. Above, an immense sky filled with dramatic clouds dominates the scene, becoming the true protagonist of the composition. Through subtle tonal transitions and luminous passages of light, the artist masterfully captures the ever-changing atmosphere of the sea. Particularly striking is the treatment of the sky, which occupies a substantial portion of the canvas and lends the work a profound sense of openness and grandeur. Soft grays, silvery blues, warm creams, and muted ochres are orchestrated with remarkable sensitivity, creating a rich atmospheric effect reminiscent of the great traditions of Dutch, Belgian, and French marine painting. Rather than focusing on anecdotal detail, Follini emphasizes mood, weather, and the relationship between human activity and the natural environment. The small scale of the figures compared to the vast beach and sky reinforces the poetic dimension of the work, evoking both the beauty and the power of the coastal landscape. The artist's confident handling of paint is evident throughout the composition. Broad brushstrokes and subtle impasto passages animate the clouds, sea, and sand, while preserving a remarkable sense of unity. The restrained palette contributes to the painting's elegance and timeless appeal, making it both an important marine subject and a highly decorative work. Combining genre painting, maritime life, and atmospheric landscape, this composition embodies the enduring appeal of European coastal art. It would make a distinguished addition to a collection of marine paintings, maritime subjects, or nineteenth- and early twentieth-century European landscapes. A poetic and beautifully executed seascape celebrating the rhythms of coastal life beneath a magnificent sky. C.

Waterline Fine Art, Austin, TX is pleased to present the following work: Oil, pastel, and paper collage on canvas. Signed and dated verso. 52.75 x 47.75 in. 54 x 49 in. (framed) Gilded floater frame. Provenance Compass Rose, Chicago Born Sylvan Irwin Goldberg in 1924 and raised in the Bronx, Michael Goldberg was an important figure in American Abstract Expressionism, who began taking art classes at the Art Students League in 1938. A gifted student, Goldberg finished high school at the age of 14 and enrolled in City College. He soon found New York’s jazz scene to be a more compelling environment, and he began skipping classes in favor of the Harlem jazz clubs near campus. Goldberg’s love of jazz would become a lifelong passion and a key component to his approach to composition in his paintings. From 1940 to 1942, like many of the leading artists of the New York School, Goldberg studied with Hans Hofmann. In 1943, he put his pursuit of painting on hold and enlisted in the U.S. Army. Serving in North Africa, Burma, and India, Goldberg received a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star before being discharged in 1946. After his service, he traveled and worked in Venezuela before returning to the United States, settling back in New York and resuming studies with Hofmann and at the Art Students League. Living downtown and frequenting the Cedar Bar, Goldberg befriended many of the artists of the New York School. In 1951, his work was included in the groundbreaking Ninth Street Show, co-organized by Leo Castelli, Conrad Marca-Relli, and the Eighth Street Club, and featuring the work of - among others - Hofmann, Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, and Franz Kline. In 1953, the Tibor de Nagy...
