Robert Panitzsch

Port Of Copenhagen

A symphony of bright blue interspersed with reflections of moored ships in near white. This is bliss, cold enough for a light coat, yet refreshingly crisp. The port rumbles with the sound of background industry - a steamboat, perhaps for passengers, is eager to move. While another steamer, with two masts, gently glides into dock. A drayman readies the pumps.

This mid-century harbour scene by Robert Panitzsch (1879-1949) is captured with an effortless style and a blend of tranquil tones. He enjoyed this place and painted it often, particularly towards the end of his life. His own walls carried examples of his love for the sea.

The painting is housed within a period frame and signed/dated.
