Henri-Edmond Cross's 'Les cyprès à Cagnes', painted in 1908, exemplifies the Neo-Impressionist style, characterised by its meticulous application of small, distinct dots of colour—a technique known as pointillism. This landscape, depicting the region of Cagnes in the South of France, showcases Cross's mastery of light and colour to evoke a sense of serene beauty. The composition features tall, slender cypress trees dominating the foreground, their dark green foliage contrasting with the vibrant yellows, pinks, and blues of the surrounding vegetation and distant buildings. The scene is bathed in a warm, Mediterranean light, creating a harmonious and visually stimulating effect. Cross, influenced by Seurat and Signac, pushed the boundaries of Impressionism, exploring the scientific theories of colour and perception.
