O obrazu
Émilie Charmy built L'Estaque from loosely connected organic shapes around 1910; the painting is at the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago. Broad areas of colour describe the rough Mediterranean coast. Forms expand and narrow around the edges, directing movement towards the centre, where Marseille's bay appears calm. Charmy travelled to coastal places like this to paint emotionally charged landscapes. She was among the earliest women to exhibit in the Fauvist manner, laying colour down in wide planes without rigid outlines. On view in gallery 391.
Slovy muzea
Émilie Charmy was among the first women to exhibit paintings in the Fauvist style. Traveling to rugged sites on France’s Mediterranean coast, such as L’Estaque, depicted here, she created landscapes suffused with emotion and subjective expression. Laying down vibrant color in broad unstructured planes, she composed the scene as a collection of loosely joined organic forms. The swelling and tapering shapes along the composition’s edges produce a dynamic sense of movement that dissipates at the center, where we glimpse the calm waters of the Bay of Marseille.

Charmy was celebrated during her lifetime, but the accolades she received feel wildly gendered today. In 1921, for example, a French writer described her as an artist who “sees like a woman and paints like a man…from the one she takes grace and from the other strength, and this is what makes her such a strange and powerful painter who holds our attention.”
