Surrounded by sea, coastal villages from Malta to Greece to the South of France built entire cultures around the daily catch. Fish was not a luxury but a lifeline, freely given by the sea and shared at the table without ceremony. The sardine, small and abundant, fed generations. Paired here with lemon and thyme (the simplest, most honest of accompaniments) this painting is a tribute to the enduring relationship between Mediterranean people and the sea that has always sustained them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eOne of just twelve originals in this collection, painted on 210gsm paper and hand-trimmed to approximately 42 x 54.5cm.

As a cost-effective alternative, a standard 50 x 70cm frame with a 40 x 50cm mat board works beautifully — note that a few centimetres of the painting's top and bottom edges will sit behind the mat, however most works in this series have been composed with this in mind.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis painting is part of a coordinating set of four, alongside\u003c\/i\u003e \"Garlic\", \"Oyster\", and \"Honey and Oil\" \u003ci\u003eEach shares the same deep midnight ground, luminous colour, and gold edging.
