Posters in Trouville - Raoul Dufy

The artwork in a nutshell
This painting belongs to the period when Raoul Dufy was still strongly influenced by the Impressionists and Fauves, while developing his own vision of urban and seaside life. Trouville, a fashionable resort on the Normandy coast, offered him lively street scenes, combining architecture, crowds and modern elements such as advertising.
The composition shows a group of strollers in front of a wall covered with large, colorful posters. On the left, advertising hoardings dominate the scene with their geometric shapes and stylized lettering, while on the right, half-timbered houses complete the décor. The figures are sketched in quick strokes, elegantly dressed, but without individualization. The colors are bold - red, yellow, blue - contrasting with the pale gray sky. The painting captures the visual bustle of a modern urban space, where crowds and commercial signs coexist in a lively yet structured atmosphere.
