19th Century European Panoramic Oil Painting Seaside Scene Donkey Drivers Signed ^Sale

This exquisite antique panoramic late 19th-century oil painting presents a tranquil Mediterranean coastal scene bathed in sunset light. Two donkey drivers have paused to rest on a sandy beach, surrounded by dramatic rocky cliffs. One man tenderly strokes his loyal dog while his companion attends to their weary donkeys. Sailing ships slip across the horizon beneath a golden evening sky, creating depth in the composition, while a lone seagull circles forlornly above the water, adding dynamic movement to the otherwise tranquil scene. The work perfectly captures how European artists of the period romanticized the simple dignity of common everyday labor. Every detail reveals the painter's mastery: the weathered textures of seaside rocks, the natural fur of the animals, and the gentle movement of sea waves. An excellent example of European genre painting from the 1800s, ideal for collectors who appreciate maritime and pastoral subjects.
