Original Description
Under the velvety cloak of twilight, Georges Ricard-Cordingley's "Coucher De Lune" transports viewers to the mesmerizing edge where sea meets sky. Painted during the artist's residence in Brittany (1895-1905), this luminous marine masterpiece exemplifies Ricard-Cordingley's signature synthesis of Impressionist light effects with Academic precision - a technique that earned him distinction among the Société des Artistes Français. The composition trembles with atmospheric energy as moonlight fractures across restless waves, its silvered palette simultaneously capturing nature's grandeur and intimacy. Considered a prime example of late 19th-century maritime romanticism, the work bridges Courbet's turbulent seascapes with Symbolist moods, its poetic realism reflecting the era's fascination with nature's sublime power.
For interior applications, this moonlit seascape makes an exquisite focal point in spaces craving serene sophistication. Hang it horizontally above a console table in a nautical-themed living room, allowing its 92x73cm proportions (standard Salon exhibition size) to harmonize with medium-width furnishings. The painting's silvery blues and gunmetal grays pair beautifully with weathered oak finishes, linen textiles, and mercury glass accessories. In home offices, position it opposite windows to create dynamic light interplay, its moon glow subtly intensifying with dusk. Contemporary interiors benefit from framing it in slender brushed nickel to underscore its tonal subtlety, while traditional settings call for gilded floater frames echoing its maritime heritage. Smaller study versions (approximately 50x40cm) work wonderfully when displayed in series with other marine studies by Cot or Boudin.
