This serene 1952 oil painting on canvas captures figures on a jetty, surrounded by moored boats. The foreground is shaded by large trees and features an inverted boat, while the rest of the scene is bathed in warm sunlight. Executed in a vibrant palette of blues and sandy tones, the figures and boats provide lively touches of colour.
The composition contrasts the cool shade of the trees with the sun-drenched jetty, evoking the tranquil atmosphere of a summer day. The artist’s almost naïve rendering of boats, figures and foliage adds charm and intimacy to the scene. Signed, dated and presented in its original 1950s Montparnasse frame.
