Lighthouse 1903

Ferdynand Ruszczyc's 1903 painting "Lighthouse" depicts a serene seascape at dusk. The painting captures the soft light emanating from a lighthouse in the distance as it illuminates several ships navigating the calm waters. The overall effect is one of tranquility, contrasting the natural elements with man-made structures and highlighting the importance of navigational aids in maritime life. The painting's signature blue tones and painterly brushstrokes evoke the sense of peace and serenity that often accompanies a quiet evening at sea. This painting is representative of Ruszczyc's style, and is a compelling example of marine painting.
