The artwork, titled “Red Sky,” was created by the artist LeRoy Neiman in 1977. Falling under the Impressionism art movement, the genre of this piece is marina.
“Red Sky” exhibits a striking and dynamic portrayal of a maritime scene. The artwork features a tumultuous ocean, with waves painted in bold, swirling strokes of blue and white. These waves crash dramatically against a large, partially submerged vessel. The vibrant red sky above adds a sense of intensity and urgency to the scene. Amidst the chaos, splashes of yellow and pink highlight smaller boats and figures struggling against the powerful sea, creating a dramatic contrast with the darker hues. The composition and energetic use of color exemplify Neiman’s characteristic style, encapsulating the frenetic beauty of the marine environment.
