St. Tropez
Paul Signac was a keen sailor who travelled the coast of France, making watercolours along the way. He liked to experiment with using small strokes of vivid colour in his harbour scenes and seascapes. In this painting, both the sea and sky include swathes of blue, pink, purple, yellow and orange as the bright sunset on the horizon is reflected in the waters below.
Work was part of the AFA tour (2009-2010): From Turner to Cézanne: Masterpieces from the Davies Collection, National Museum Wales
