| Vorhor, the Green Wave by Georges Lacombe, 1897 |
I was struck by the bold colors and shapes but it never occurred to me to look for the human shapes and Japanese-style decorative patterns.North of Pont-Aven, Lacombe found this dramatic crag overlooking the sea and rendered it even more spectacular with vivid hues of turquoise, mauve, and gold. He also anthropomorphized the rocks, finding human shapes in them, and transformed the waves into decorative patterns similar to Japanese prints.
