Franz Emil Krause, Shipwreck on the Coast Morning scene on a rocky coast with a stranded sailing ship and fishermen in the light of dawn, salvaging the still usable belongings of the stranded, only on closer inspection of the painting, which is contemplative despite all its drama, does the ambiguity and subtle philosophy of the composition become clear, for example the name "Fortuna" is inconspicuously emblazoned on the hull of the stranded ship, This Latin term can be translated as "luck" but also "fate", so the painting also represents an allegory of the human condition, in which fate determines our path, luck and misfortune sometimes lie close together and, despite everything, luck does not completely perish and life progresses with energy in the face of the rising sun, impasto impressionist genre painting in restrained colours and interesting light, oil on canvas, around 1890, signed lower right "Fr. Krause", newer label "Franz Krause 1836-1900, Niederschönhausen bei Berlin" verso on stretcher, craquelure, somewhat restored, framed with brass frame label "Franz Emil Kraus *1936 † 1900", folded dimensions approx. 47.5 x 74 cm.
