Saint-Tropez. The Lighthouse','zh-CN
1895
Paul Signac practically put Saint-Tropez on the map long before it became a celebrity playground, and this sun-drenched harbor sketch shows exactly why he fell in love with the spot. Instead of the tiny, meticulous dots he used for his massive masterpieces, Signac uses thick, swirling slabs of pale blue, yellow, and purple paint to capture the shimmering Mediterranean light. You can almost feel the sea breeze ruffling the figure standing near the boats and the lighthouse. It is a fantastic glimpse into the artist's process, revealing how he quickly captured the vibrant energy of the coast.
