Harbor Scene, Reykjavik II 1987

"Harbor Scene, Reykjavik II" is a 1987 painting by Icelandic artist Louisa Matthiasdottir. The painting is a landscape composition that captures a view of the harbor in Reykjavik, Iceland. The artist’s use of bold, bright colors and simplified forms, characteristic of her style, bring to life the scenery with a distinct expressionism. The composition depicts a clear blue sky, white clouds, and a vast blue expanse of water. In the foreground, a collection of white buildings stand out against the bright blue water. This piece showcases Matthiasdottir’s appreciation for the natural beauty of her native Iceland.
