Setting Sun, Sardine Fishing, Concarneau, op. 221 (Adagio)
by SIGNAC, Paul, Oil on canvas, 65 x 81 cm
This work is one of five related paintings of fishing boats at sea near the French town of Concarneau, in Brittany. Signac linked his Concarneau paintings with musical sub-titles, metaphorically suggesting a symphonic arrangement.
