About the artist
Henri-Edmond Cross was a pivotal French painter who played a significant role in the development of Neo-Impressionism. Initially influenced by the Realism and Impressionism movements, Cross eventually embraced the Pointillist technique, using tiny, juxtaposed dots of colour to convey luminosity and depth. His vibrant, harmonious landscapes of the French Riviera, characterised by bold colour choices and geometric compositions, influenced later avant-garde movements, especially Fauvism. Collaborating with artists like Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, Cross's innovative approach left a lasting mark on modern art.
