A tireless traveler, Albert Marquet traveled the Normandy coast from 1903 to 1937 during seven stays (Flamanville, Le Havre, Fécamp, Trouville, Honfleur, Rouen, Old Port and Dieppe) where he was trained by Henri Manguin then Raoul Dufy, Henri Matisse, Paul Signac and Felix Vallotton. He found there a field of experimentation for his work on color and patterns that he never stopped painting all his life far beyond Normandy: the maritime world, the port and its human activities, the beach, the boats and above all the water he has kept a taste for since his childhood in Bordeaux.
“Plein-airiste d’atelier”, Marquet paints from his window and invents in Normandy the formula of a landscape seen from above, sheltered from prying eyes, with a sense of framing, of the synthesis of forms and a taste very sure of the color. IN FRENCH!
