The Bridge of Bourg-Saint-Andéol

circa 1926

Paul Signac, best known for his meticulous Pointillist dots, takes a wonderfully loose approach in this vibrant watercolor sketch of a suspension bridge in southern France. Created around 1926, likely during one of his many sailing trips along the Rhône River, the artwork captures the sturdy stone pillars and sweeping cables against a sky filled with swirling, energetic clouds. The quick, fluid strokes reveal a more spontaneous side of the artist, contrasting sharply with his famous, highly structured oil paintings.
