Royan 1910

"Royan" is a 1910 painting by Scottish artist Samuel Peploe. The painting depicts a harbor scene with boats and a distant shoreline, rendered with loose, expressive brushstrokes in vibrant colors. Peploe was a prominent figure in the Scottish Colourists movement, known for their bold use of color and influence from French Post-Impressionism. The artwork is characterized by a distinctive palette of pinks, purples, and oranges, echoing the vibrant hues often found in French Impressionist paintings. The style and subject matter of "Royan" are representative of Peploe's artistic development and reflect the influence of his travels in France.
