"Harbor of Menton" (1905) by Albert Marquet (1875-1947) is a captivating depiction of the French Riviera. The painting showcases Marquet's signature Fauvist style, characterized by bold brushstrokes, vivid colors, and simplified forms. The composition features a vibrant blue harbor, a small boat in the foreground, and a bustling town nestled on the hillside in the distance. Marquet's use of color and light creates a sense of tranquility and captures the beauty of the Mediterranean coastline.
