The artwork titled “South of France. After the storm” was created by the artist Ivan Bilibin in 1936. It belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) art movement and is categorized under the landscape genre.
The artwork depicts a coastal scene and an inland view, likely inspired by the South of France after a storm has passed. The coastal scene illustrates the ocean waves gently washing onto the shore with a calm ambiance emanating from the water’s peaceful flow. The inland landscape features gently rolling hills, scattered trees, and a serene natural environment basking in the aftermath of the storm. The use of grayscale evokes a tranquil atmosphere, capturing the essence of the landscape in a period of calm and reflection following the storm’s departure.
