About this artwork

Maxime Maufra painted this view of the Breton coast in 1895, in oil. He began as an amateur and in 1883 left a career in business to paint full time, travelling through Normandy and Brittany to paint sea and landscapes. A visit to Pont-Aven in 1890 brought him into contact with Paul Gauguin and a group of younger artists drawn to Gauguin's approach to colour and composition. You can see that influence here, as forms become flat areas of strong colour arranged in a decorative pattern. The most striking choice is the steep cliff at the left, which frames the whole scene.

On your wall: Its coastal subject and bold, decorative colour suit a living room, hallway or study, particularly where a view of the sea would be welcome.
