Pines of Rayol 1912

Theo van Rysselberghe's "Pines of Rayol" (1912) depicts a serene landscape of pine trees along a coastline. The artist's signature divisionist technique, characterized by small, distinct brushstrokes of color, is evident in the vibrant, yet seemingly blended hues of the foliage, sky, and water. The painting evokes a tranquil atmosphere, capturing the beauty of nature through the artist's nuanced use of color and light. This work is an example of the artist's fascination with landscapes and his exploration of the Neo-Impressionist style.
