Saint-Servan c. 1895

Armand Guillaumin's "Saint-Servan" is a serene landscape painting from circa 1895. The French artist, known for his vibrant brushstrokes and use of color, captures the essence of a coastal scene. With broad brushwork, Guillaumin emphasizes the vastness of the sea, the calmness of the water, and the rugged beauty of the coastline. The two sailboats in the distance add a sense of movement and life to the composition, while the lush vegetation of the foreground provides a contrasting foreground against the open sea. This painting exemplifies the artist's fascination with nature and his ability to translate his impressions into captivating imagery.
