About the piece

Painted in 1882 during her stay on the French Riviera, Berthe Morisot's 'The Port of Nice' exemplifies the artist's masterful use of light and movement. The composition utilizes a bright, luminous palette and delicate, gestural brushstrokes to capture the shimmering atmosphere of the Mediterranean coast, making it a quintessential piece of Impressionist marine art.
