About the piece

Painted in 1914, this watercolor study by Paul Signac depicts the village of Saint-Julien-en-Beauchêne. Unlike his earlier strict pointillist works, this piece showcases a more fluid and expressive technique typical of his later style, using harmonious washes of color and loose pencil work to define the peaceful alpine landscape.
