About the piece

Painted in 1882 by Alphonse Moutte, this masterful work depicts 'The Fishermen's Lunch' on the rocky coastline near Marseille. The composition features a striking central figure drinking from a ceramic vessel, set against an expansive, sun-drenched horizon that exemplifies the luminous realism of the Provencal school.
