Beautiful luminous work by the painter Pierre Faget-Germain which represents a view of the Gulf of Porto in Corsica on a stormy day.
The contrast of colors and the play of light perfectly transcribe the maritime atmosphere of the place.
The Gulf of Porto is characterized by its ocher colored volcanic rock and the serration of its volcanic rock.
