This Neo-Impressionist painting by Henri-Edmond Cross captures a tranquil coastal scene with shimmering light and a mosaic-like application of colour. 'Afternoon at Pardigon, Var' exemplifies Cross's mature style and his exploration of light and atmosphere.
Henri-Edmond Cross, a French painter born in Douai, is known for his contributions to the Neo-Impressionist movement. He, along with artists like Paul Signac and Georges Seurat, explored the science of colour and optics, applying it to their artistic practice. Cross's work moved away from the more rigid, systematic approach of early Pointillism, embracing a looser, more expressive application of colour. He aimed to capture the effects of light and atmosphere, often depicting scenes from nature. 'Afternoon at Pardigon, Var' exemplifies Cross's mature style. The painting depicts a coastal scene, likely near the artist's home in the south of France. The composition is built from small, distinct strokes of colour, creating a mosaic-like effect. Blues and greens dominate the foliage and water, while touches of yellow, orange, and red add warmth and luminosity to the scene. The overall effect is one of shimmering light and tranquil beauty, characteristic of Cross's Neo-Impressionist vision.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

changing his name twice to escape confusion, moving to the Mediterranean for his health, and painting the coastline in colours so intense they helped start Fauvism
