The Bay of Colliure near the Port 1897

"The Bay of Colliure near the Port" is an oil painting by Henri Martin, created in 1897, that depicts the picturesque seaside town of Colliure in southern France. Martin, known for his luminous landscapes, captures the vibrant colors and tranquil atmosphere of the scene. The painting features a prominent hill, topped with a structure, overlooking the town and its harbor, where boats are gently bobbing in the water. The reflections of the buildings and the surrounding landscape in the water create a sense of depth and tranquility, characteristic of the artist's style, known as Pointillism.
