About the piece

This 1852 oil painting by Italian artist Ippolito Caffi depicts a sweeping view of the beach at Nice from the Quai du Midi. Figures in period dress overlook the vibrant turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, while classical architecture lines the sandy shore, all rendered with a delicate, atmospheric touch that captures the bright, hazy coastal light typical of the French Riviera.
