The work represents a view of a rocky coastline of the Côte d'Azur with sailing boats.
It is an oil painting on canvas from the late 19th century.
This oil painting on canvas has an original golden frame realised in the
XIX century, coeval with the work.
The painting is signed in the bottom right by Julien G., a French painter of marine paintings.
Julien Gustave Marius (1825-1881) was born in Lambese (Bouches-du-Rhone).
He began exhibiting his works at the 'Salon Des Artistes Français' in Paris in 1864
and then exhibited his works again in the following years in 1865 and 1866.
The frame and the antique canvas were cleaned and restored.
