“Fecamp, Sunshine” vividly captures a sunlit coastal scene using the Pointillist technique, characterized by the meticulous application of small, distinct dots of color. This method brilliantly conveys the play of light and atmosphere. The painting features a pathway leading towards the sea, flanked by sand and rock formations. The sky, rendered in a mosaic of blues and whites, complements the golden hues of the land. The work exemplifies Signac’s exploration of light and color, immersing viewers in the serene and luminous environment of Fécamp.
