Description:
This original oil on canvas by British artist Olave Hammond depicts a dramatic seascape with coastal ruins perched on grassy cliffs, waves crashing against rocks below, and a lighthouse visible in the distance. Executed in heavy impasto, the painting captures the energy and movement of the sea, enhanced by textured brushstrokes and layered colour.
The work is signed in the lower right and dated 1987 on the reverse, alongside the artist’s address. It is presented in its original period frame from a Bognor Regis framer. Measuring 25.5 × 36 cm unframed (34 × 44.5 cm framed), the painting combines local provenance with expressive technique, making it a striking piece for collectors of coastal and maritime art.
