Mid Ocean 1937 — Fine Art

Mid Ocean 1937 shows a stretch of water with tall shapes rising from the surface. The picture uses strong lines and blocks of colour, the way Lyonel Feininger built his seascapes. Thin marks cross the surface and the horizon holds the scene together.

The fine art print comes ready to hang. The white frame gives the picture a clean edge on the wall, so the deep blues stay open and the lines do not stop at the frame. A wood frame warms the blue field, and a dark wood frame puts more weight near the water.

In a kitchen with a north facing window, you notice the horizontal lines first when you stand at the sink. From the doorway the big shapes read as a flat sea, and the small marks reveal themselves on the breakfast table.
