Escape to the vibrant quayside of Portree Harbour, where the essence of the Isle of Skye is captured through bold colours and emotive brushwork reminiscent of Fauvism. Basking under a sunset-hued sky, the painting enlivens the senses with its juxtaposition of fiery oranges and cool blues, portraying the transition from dusk to evening with a passion that is palpable.

Majestic shapes rise and dip in the background, a nod to the rolling hills characteristic of the Scottish landscape, while the harbour's water reflects the lively sky in a dance of colour and light. Boats with hulls in shades of terracotta and black rest peacefully on the water, their masts cutting static lines through the dynamic backdrop.

The harbourside houses assume an almost rhythmic presence, with their facades painted in a palette of warm tones ranging from soft yellows to a resolute red, creating a striking contrast against the more subdued whites. Each stroke on the canvas reveals the artist’s deliberate abandonment of traditional representation for expressiveness and the evocation of raw, untempered emotion.

As part of the 'Scottish Harbours' collection, this print is a testament to the timelessness of Scotland's coastal scenery, reimagined through an expressive lens that invokes both wonder and nostalgia. It's a must-have for connoisseurs of both Scotland’s natural beauty and the bold simplicity of Fauvist art.
