In this lot, Amorsolo demonstrated why he is renowned for the vibrantly colored romantic genre genese, as well as his mature handling of light and composition - the viewers are directed to the fisher folks’ dedication to their duty and their interaction between each other, which shows the merriment achieved from both their modest lifestyle and maintaining the communal sense of living.
\nThe blissful tranquility of the scene is conveyed as well through the stillness and glistening reflection of the water alongside the mixture of the red, orange and yellow hues of the skyline, a diffusion of the soft, lucid light across the scene, and once again, man is seen in balance and unison with nature - a signature approach to the realist technique of the first ever National Artist of the Philippines.","lot_group":"PAINTING","lot_details_html":"
