A lively coastal scene in the South of France. The figures provide great movement and spontaneity to the composition. The mature tree dominates the mid-foreground and the mountains which surround the coast form the background. The buildings provide the linear perspective and scale set within the aerial perspective which the artist cleverly creates to provide depth. An impressionist picture which Knighton-Hammond would have painted at lightning speed.
