Can anyone name the picture and/or the artist thereof in the middle of this picture?

It's not on the list of "items you can view in this room" and my google-fu is weak!

Thanks in advance!

Wonderful, isn't? Calm, relaxed water, but with some sort of dark undercurrent.....Could look at that for hours.

Yum

Calm, relaxed water, but with some sort of dark undercurrent
is that the tasting notes? Have to say the art doesn't do it for me but maybe theres more to it in the flesh
