More about this artwork

"Stormy Evening at Kerhostin" by Maxime Maufra, painted in 1913, masterfully captures the brief yet dramatic moment when a storm approaches the coast of Kerhostin, a small village in France. Maufra's vivacious painting style blossoms in full force through his treatment of the sky—dark and brooding clouds loom ominously, dashed with unexpected splashes of pink and orange that hint at a setting sun caught in the storm.The landscape below reflects the tumultuous sky. The rough, expressive brushstrokes convey the restless motion of the sea, while the pale, sandy shores speckled with dark rocks anchor the painting, adding a grounded contrast to the fluidity above and the water below. In the distance, small houses and figures, painted with just enough detail to evoke human presence, seem braced against the impending storm, reflecting the resilience often required in coastal living.Maufra's use of color creates a luminous quality that suggests the storm's silver lining - literally and metaphorically. Through his command of atmospheric and changing light, Maufra captures not just a specific location under the threat of nature's mighty power, but also a fleeting, beautiful moment before the storm's full wrath is unleashed.
