Title: Pines Along the Shore
Caption: Pines Along the Shore. Artist: Henri-Edmond Cross (Henri-Edmond Delacroix) (French, Douai 1856-1910 Saint-Clair). Dimensions: 21 1/4 x 25 3/4 in. (54 x 65.4 cm). Date: 1896.
Henri-Edmond Cross was a practitioner of the Neoimpressionist style of painting, a short-lived avantgarde movement in the late nineteenth century which emphasized the use of separate touches of interwoven pigment to achieve greater vibrancy of color in the observer's eye. In Pines Along the Shore, painted in the south of France overlooking the Mediterranean, Cross weaves and layers separate brushstrokes, building his paint surface in a tapestry-like fashion from cool tones on the pine grove floor to brilliant foliage at the water's edge to softer hues in the sky and mountains beyond.
