"Bay of Naples" is an oil painting by Albert Marquet from 1908. The work captures a serene seascape with the iconic Mount Vesuvius in the distance, as seen from the Bay of Naples. Marquet's characteristic use of color is evident in the muted tones and the simplified forms of the boats and the shoreline. This painting exemplifies Marquet's fascination with capturing the atmospheric qualities of light and the tranquility of nature, a trademark of his Fauvist style.
