Effect of Sun on the Water (Andre Derain, Fauvism)

Effect of Sun on the Water

Jerry CG's comments: As there is little analysis on Effect of Sun on the Water on the Internet, I will give a brief analysis here. This picture is a Fauvist painting which is "less fauvist". It depicts the sunsetting scene on the ocean. The red, orange, yellow, blue and green sky is connected with the colorful ocean. The whole picture gives viewers a sense of harmony and delight. We can find peace and tender in it.
