Le Bar Sur La Plage 1923 - 1925

Henri Lebasque's "Le Bar Sur La Plage" is an Impressionistic oil painting from 1923-1925, showcasing a beach scene with a bar on the shore. The painting depicts a vibrant, yet relaxed scene of beachgoers, with the bright blue sea and sky providing a backdrop to the colorful beach umbrellas and the people enjoying themselves at the bar. The composition centers on the figures at the bar, but the view of the beach and the ocean fills the background, giving a sense of depth and perspective. Lebasque's characteristic use of loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors creates a lively atmosphere that captures the essence of the beach. This piece reflects the artistic movements of early 20th century France and captures the joy of leisure time and the carefree spirit of the era.
