David Gariff on Masters of the French Riviera

Few regions of Europe can rival the French Riviera’s combination of magical light, mild climate, colorful landscapes, and living history. Long a magnet for foreign artists-including Monet, Renoir, Bonnard, Matisse, Picasso, and Chagall-the Côte d’Azur and its scenery, people, and traditions have inspired some of modern art’s most iconic paintings and sculptures. David Gariff discusses the historical significance and impact of the French Riviera on 20th-century art, examining the inspiration artists found in locations such as Nice, Saint-Tropez, and Collioure.

    A sharp and engaging lecture. Anyone who wants to dive into the beautiful waters of post-impressionism and its harmonious relationship with the Côte d'Azur should watch this. Great choice of paintings, and totally à propos and enlightening commentary. Excellent.

    Remember, Seurat died at 31. He certainly would have had more major works had he lived longer.
