About the piece

Painted in 1896, this masterful work by Paul Signac exemplifies the Divisionist technique, using rhythmic dabs of color to create a shimmering, light-filled landscape. The composition features the iconic ochre bell tower of Saint-Tropez overlooking a cluster of coastal buildings and sailboats reflected in the rippling Mediterranean waters.
