Henri-Edmond Cross Prints – Coastal Colour, Venice & Light
Henri-Edmond Cross prints build shores, trees, figures and buildings through small touches of colour. Mediterranean subjects sit alongside Venetian waterways and landscapes where the sky becomes a strongly patterned surface. Browse unframed prints, framed prints and canvas panels, alongside Post-Impressionist art and seascape prints.
The beach and the small figures
Beach at Cabasson places figures on pale ground beneath a broad band of blue water. The sheltered shoreline and small marks of vegetation give the open view a clear shape. Other coastal works turn to pines, rocks and people near the water, offering a range of Mediterranean settings.
The canal as a colour-filled space
A Canal in Venice brings pale buildings, blue water and a narrow passage into a closely worked upright view. Separate marks allow the architectural surfaces and reflections to share a similar rhythm. Browse Venice prints for other treatments of the city’s canals.
The sky as the main event
The Pink Cloud places a large warm cloud above cooler trees, land and distant water. Its colours gather into distinct areas while the small marks remain visible throughout. Other landscapes in the collection vary the balance between planted ground, open shore and the sky beyond.
