A luminous vision suspended between reality and imagination, Caprice Portugais II captures the fleeting poetry of a coastal city where sea, sky, and architecture dissolve into one another. Painted alla prima, Jean Arcelin’s fluid brushwork transforms Lisbon’s familiar outlines into a dreamlike mirage — a “false realism” where memory replaces observation. Light and mist erase solidity, leaving only atmosphere, movement, and the quiet suggestion of human presence within absence.
