Vibrant maritime oil painting attributed to Morris Katz and dated lower right. The composition depicts three tall sailing ships aligned across reflective waters beneath a luminous sky rendered in expressive color. Executed in Katz’s characteristic impasto technique, the thick palette knife application creates strong texture and dimension, particularly in the shimmering water and sky. The bold brushwork and dynamic color palette make this an eye-catching nautical statement piece suitable for both traditional and mid century interiors.

H:23in L:27in

Condition Report:
