Duboc, depicts a maritime scene full of movement and a unique atmosphere. The sea is choppy, with dynamic waves giving the impression of strong winds or an impending storm. Several small sailing boats are scattered across the water, some tilted by the force of the wind, accentuating the sense of tension and life. On the horizon, we can see a coastline with buildings and a tall structure—likely a lighthouse—that serves as a focal point in the distance. The sky is laden with clouds, in shades of blue and white, suggesting unstable weather. The light appears diffuse, as if filtered through the clouds, reinforcing the drama of the scene. The brushstrokes are expressive, giving rhythm to the whole. The style appears post-impressionist, with a desire to capture the moment and sensations rather than precise details. The artist's signature is located in the lower right corner. The painting is framed in a molded frame with shimmering gilt.

Jean-Jacques Duboc (1930-1990) is a figurative painter. He distinguished himself with an intimate oeuvre centered on French landscapes, marine scenes, and winter atmospheres. His paintings reflect a particular sensitivity to light, the seasons, and the tranquility of the surroundings. Duboc was fond of the landscapes of Normandy and Brittany, ports, snowy scenes, and rural villages. His style, both understated and evocative, favors calm atmospheres and balanced compositions.
