Marsden Hartley's 1927 oil painting "Mont Sainte-Victoire" depicts the iconic mountain in a stylized, abstract manner. The painting, a testament to Hartley's fascination with the mountain, uses bold, geometric shapes and vivid colors to evoke the majesty and grandeur of the landscape. The prominent pink hues of the mountain contrast with the deep blue and green hues of the foothills, suggesting a sense of depth and dimensionality. This landscape artwork exemplifies Hartley's exploration of abstract expressionism, a style he became known for during his career.
