EDITORS COMMENTS
San Remo, 1888," transports us back in time to the picturesque Italian coastal town during the late 19th century. The graphite and pen and black ink drawing on wove paper showcases Casilear's exceptional skill in capturing the intricate details of the harbor front. The image is bathed in a soft, sepia tone, adding to the nostalgic and timeless feel. In the foreground, the harbor bustles with activity as ships of various sizes and shapes prepare to set sail or return to port. The white sails stand out against the dark, textured water, while the black outlines of the boats and buildings create a striking contrast. In the background, the rolling hills and lush greenery of San Remo's picturesque landscape unfold, providing a serene backdrop to the bustling harbor. Casilear's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the ships' rigging, the textured water, and the architectural details of the buildings. The artist's use of contrasting textures and tones adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a visual feast for the eyes. This stunning work of art is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the 19th century and a reminder of the beauty and charm of San Remo during a bygone era. Casilear's "San Remo, 1888" is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the art of the past or an interest in the history of maritime transportation." This artwork is part of the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. and is an excellent addition to any art centre or gallery displaying works from the 19th century. It is a beautiful reminder of the past and a testament to the enduring allure of the sea and the towns that thrive along its shores.
