'Old Port of Marseille' is an oil painting on canvas by the internationally acclaimed contemporary Russian artist Vladimir Volegov.
The artwork depicts a serene view of the iconic harbor of Marseille, France, featuring numerous docked elegant yachts and sailboats, and the glittering water, reflecting the soft daylight.
In the background is visible the historic cityscape, dominated by the silhouette of the famous Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica atop the hill.
Vladimir Volegov (born in 1957 in Khabarovsk, Russia, currently living on the Costa Brava in Spain), utilizes a vibrant impressionistic style, emphasizing textured brushstrokes and realistic lighting to depict the ripples, masts, and maritime ambiance of the harbor.
