Paul Cézanne painted this view of the Bay of Marseille from the hills above L'Estaque repeatedly in the 1880s, using the panorama of sea, rooftops, and distant mountains to develop his mature method of building landscape from structured, interlocking planes of color. The high, distant viewpoint flattens the scene into a near-abstract pattern of blues and ochres, an approach that directly anticipated the analytical breakdown of form later pursued by the Cubists. This L'Estaque view is among the most celebrated and influential landscapes of Cézanne's career.

Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.
