"Malaga" is a seascape painting by Ivan Aivazovsky, completed in 1854. The painting depicts a sunset over the harbor of Malaga, Spain, with ships at anchor and a small boat with figures in the foreground. Aivazovsky, known for his dramatic maritime scenes, captures the shimmering light of the setting sun on the water and the city skyline. The painting is a testament to Aivazovsky's mastery of light and color, and his ability to convey the vastness and beauty of the sea.
