Painted in 1919, this loose, atmospheric landscape is an example of Dufy's ability with color and light, trademarks that would follow him throughout his career. Through his brother, Raoul Dufy, Jean met Cézanne, whose influence can be seen here in the 'hatching' brushstroke technique that mingles the muted tones of blue and green. His first series of watercolors were all done in this style and exhibited in 1914 at the Berthe Weill Gallery, Paris. Shortly after this exhibition, Dufy was drafted but continued to paint watercolors during his military service, focusing on landscapes, flora and fauna. He returned to Paris in 1920, settling in Montmartre amid the creative and cultural explosion that was taking place there. This watercolor is one of his late early works and hints at the play of light, color and incorporation of musical themes that would define his mature style.
