His recent exhibitions demonstrate a dynamic talent with an unusual style that surprised audiences and critics alike. His formulations are dramatic and authoritative. His colors, developing in a delicate chromatic range, show a profound harmony, an infinite gradation of shades with serene transparency. A turbulent spirit inspired by a creative force of glowing enthusiasm. Experts recognize him as one of the rarest talents of today's young artists.\"\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"js-heading-details\" class=\"section-title\"\u003eDetails\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"js-heading-details\" role=\"tabpanel\" class=\"product-info-content collapse in\" id=\"js-info-details\"\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDimensions\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e42.5ʺW × 2ʺD × 30.5ʺH\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eStyles\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMid-Century Modern\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNautical\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSchool of Paris\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFrame Type\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eFramed\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eArt Subjects\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCityscape\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSeascape\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLandscape\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePeriod\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1960s\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePlace of Origin\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eFrance\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eItem Type\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"item-type-item\"\u003eVintage, Antique or Pre-owned\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMaterials\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCanvas\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOil Paint\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eWood\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCondition\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eVery Good Condition, Original Condition Unaltered, No Imperfections\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eColor\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGray\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdd class=\"tear-sheet-actions js-product-tear-sheet-actions\"\u003e\n\u003ca aria-label=\"Print Tear Sheet\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/product\/3343519\/tear-sheet\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cicon cicon-printer\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca aria-label=\"Download Tear Sheet\" download=\"large-jules-duffart-oil-on-canvas-harbor-scene-painting.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"\/product\/3343519\/tear-sheet?is_download=1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cicon cicon-download\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"detail-list\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\u003cspan class=\"js-swap-sibling\"\u003e Very Good Vintage Condition With a Patina Fitting Its Age\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 110px; top: 863.375px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MODERN REDUX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41131876614331,"sku":"LARGE JULES DUFFART OIL ON CANVAS HARBOR SCENE PAINTING","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2159\/9561\/products\/98068553_1_x-01.jpg?v=1627938449","url":"https:\/\/modernredux.myshopify.com\/products\/duffart-harbor-scene","provider":"MODERN REDUX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
