Cassis 1913

"Cassis" (1913) by Pyotr Konchalovsky is a vibrant landscape painting that captures the beauty of the French Riviera. The painting features a serene seascape with a lone sailboat on the horizon, framed by lush greenery and a cluster of houses with terracotta roofs. The artist uses bold strokes and a limited color palette to evoke a sense of tranquility and evoke the bright light of the Mediterranean. Konchalovsky's simplified forms and expressive brushwork are characteristic of his Post-Impressionist style, often influenced by the works of Cézanne and Van Gogh. The piece is a testament to the artist's appreciation for the natural world and his ability to convey its essence through his art.
