Famed as a painter of ‘joy and light’, Lebasque is admired for the intimacy of his subject matter and his unique delight in colour and form and 'La Plage de Cannes' is a perfect example of this. Most likely painted en plein air, the present work is a delightful souvenir of happy times spent on holiday in Cannes with his family. There is a sense of calm infused in Lebasque's paintings which celebrate the fullness and richness of life. The composition highlights the artist's fascination with the portrayal of women in their natural surroundings.
