Martigues — Fine Art

Martigues shows a coastal scene with small boats and houses near water, painted in loose brush strokes. Raoul Dufy worked in the early twentieth century French modern style, using bright colour and quick marks to catch a place at a glance.

This fine art print arrives ready to hang, with a metal hanger fitted to the back that goes straight onto a nail or screw. No separate frame to buy. The matte sheet keeps the light blues and pale tones soft, so the surface does not shine under a lamp.

On a dining room wall, the boats and houses sit low and the bright water draws the eye across the table. From the doorway you see the big shapes first, and closer up the quick brush marks become clear.
