Description
GIBRALTAR THE ROCK AT SUNRISE is a commissioned textural impasto palette knife oil painting I created for a collector from U.K.
''Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located on the southern end of the Iberian Peninsula. It has an area of 6.7 km2 (2.6 sq mi) and shares its northern border with Spain. The Rock of Gibraltar is the major landmark of the region. At its foot is a densely populated city area, home to over 30,000 Gibraltarians and other nationalities.
The Rock of Gibraltar (Spanish and Llanito: El Peñón de Gibraltar, which stems from the Arabic Jabal Ṭāriq, "Tariq's Mountain"; originally called Calpe ) is a monolithic limestone promontory located in the British overseas territory of Gibraltar, near the southwestern tip of Europe on the Iberian Peninsula. It is 426 m (1,398 ft) high. The Rock is Crown property of the United Kingdom, and borders Spain. Most of the Rock's upper area is covered by a nature reserve, which is home to around 300 Barbary macaques. These macaques, as well as a labyrinthine network of tunnels, attract a large number of tourists each year.
The Rock of Gibraltar was one of the Pillars of Hercules and was known to the Romans as Mons Calpe, the other pillar being Mons Abyla or Jebel Musa on the African side of the Strait. In ancient times, the two points marked the limit to the known world, a myth originally fostered by the Greeks and the Phoenicians.
Gibraltar is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea and has no contact with the Atlantic Ocean.'' ( wiki )
Few years ago traveled in Andalusia and in south of Spain and I also visited Gibraltar.
