Exhibition label on the reverse. 

A beautiful, luminous, and high-contrast work by the Corsican painter, Tony Cardella, depicting a view of the port of Centuri in Corsica on a summer's day. 
In the foreground, one can distinguish the fishing boats hauled out at the quay. The background offers a general view of the fishing port. 

Attached to his roots, Tony Cardella never ceased, through his painting, to represent the landscapes of the Isle of Beauty and its inhabitants. His luminous and colorful palette perfectly captures the colors of the Mediterranean shores.
In 1941, the artist completed admirable paintings for the interior of the Franciscan Church in L'Île-Rousse, restoring to this place of worship its original function of contemplation and of prayer. 
He participates in numerous exhibitions both in mainland France and in Corsica, where his talent is rewarded and praised by critics. 

Dimensions: 46 x 55 cm unframed and 57.5 x 67.5 cm with its original white patinated wooden frame.
