Al largo della Gallinara

"Al largo della Gallinara" (Ref. 098) represents one of the peaks of Ruggero Ruggieri's marine production, a panoramic work (30x60 cm) and a public favorite. The painting captures the full majesty of the Ligurian island during a regatta, where the millennial stillness of the rock contrasts with the dynamism of the white sails in the foreground. Created entirely with a palette knife, the canvas is a triumph of texture: the wave crests are carved with bold strokes that catch the light, while the island's vegetation emerges with striking tactile three-dimensionality. The vibrant palette, dominated by deep Mediterranean blues and lush greens, conveys the full energy of a windy, sunny day on the Riviera. An exceptional modern figurative work, perfect for large spaces seeking a piece with strong character, combining nautical elegance with the sculptural power of palette knife painting.
