About the piece
Dating from 1837, this serene oil study captures the entrance to the harbor at Bahia, Brazil. The composition artfully balances the dense, tropical foliage of 'As Pedreiras' with the expansive blue of the bay, where several sailboats glide under a soft, overcast sky, reflecting the peaceful atmosphere of the coastal landscape.
