Le Port De La Rochelle c. 1920

"Le Port De La Rochelle" (c. 1920) is a watercolor and pastel drawing by French artist Paul Signac. The artwork depicts the harbor of La Rochelle, a coastal city in southwestern France, with a focus on the towering stone structures along the waterfront. Signac utilizes a loose and expressive style, characteristic of Neo-Impressionism, to capture the light and color of the scene. The use of short, distinct strokes and a vibrant palette creates a sense of movement and energy, echoing the rhythm of the waves and the bustling activity of the port.
