The Buoy (La bouée)
1894
Paul Signac captures a sun-drenched harbor where tiny, vibrant dots of color dance across the water and buildings, creating a shimmering, almost vibrating effect. This piece showcases his mastery of Pointillism, a technique where small strokes of pure color blend in the viewer's eye rather than on the canvas. Signac actually discovered the fishing village of Saint-Tropez and, through his glowing artworks like this one, helped transform it from a quiet port into the glamorous resort destination it is today!
