This Pointillist painting by Henri-Edmond Cross depicts two bathers in a coastal landscape, rendered in small dots of colour that create a shimmering, luminous effect.
Henri-Edmond Cross, a French painter born in Douai, was a significant figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement. He is particularly known for his application of Pointillism, a technique where small, distinct dots of colour are applied in patterns to form an image. Cross's work often features Mediterranean coastal scenes, reflecting his later life spent in the south of France. His paintings are characterised by their luminosity and use of colour to evoke atmosphere and emotion. He was a friend of Paul Signac, and his work influenced Henri Matisse and other Fauvist painters. 'Bathers' exemplifies Cross's Pointillist style. The composition depicts two female figures wading in the water, set against a backdrop of a vibrant shoreline. The scene is rendered using small dots of colour, which blend optically to create a shimmering effect. The colour palette includes blues and greens for the water, juxtaposed with oranges and yellows for the land, creating a sense of warmth and light. The figures are simplified in form, contributing to the overall sense of harmony and tranquility. The painting captures a moment of leisure and connection with nature, typical of Cross's idyllic vision.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

changing his name twice to escape confusion, moving to the Mediterranean for his health, and painting the coastline in colours so intense they helped start Fauvism
