Oil Painting by Leon Giuseppe Buono – Pozzuoli Harbor, 1930

Painted in 1930 by Italian artist Leon Giuseppe Buono, this luminous harbor scene captures the coastal town of Pozzuoli, just outside Naples. With loose, impressionistic strokes and a soft, atmospheric palette, Buono portrays the bustling waterfront—lined with colorful facades, dome-topped churches, and boats gently bobbing in the sunlit water.

Reflections shimmer across the bay, while delicate details in the architecture and working figures evoke the rhythm of daily life in Southern Italy. Housed in an ornate gilded frame, this piece is both a romantic keepsake of the Italian coast and a beautiful example of early 20th-century Neapolitan painting.
