This oil on canvas by Henri-Edmond Cross, titled 'Aguttes', exemplifies the Neo-Impressionist style through its use of Pointillism and soft, pastel colours to depict a nude woman in profile.
Henri-Edmond Cross, a French painter and printmaker, was a significant figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement. Born in Douai, France, he initially worked in a style influenced by Impressionism before adopting the Pointillist technique championed by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. His work is characterised by its use of divided colour and its exploration of light and atmosphere. Cross's paintings often depict idyllic scenes of the Mediterranean coast. He exhibited regularly at the Salon des Indépendants and played a role in the development of early modern art. 'Aguttes' presents a nude woman in profile, seated in a relaxed pose. The painting employs a Pointillist technique, with small, distinct dots of colour applied to the canvas. These dots blend optically when viewed from a distance, creating a luminous and shimmering effect. The palette is dominated by soft, pastel hues, including blues, greens, and pinks, which contribute to the work's ethereal quality. The figure is rendered with a delicate touch, and the overall composition exudes a sense of serenity and contemplation.

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
