Context:

Label copy: La Ciotat is a small Mediterranean resort just east of Marseilles. Considering how closely this composition recalls paintings by the recently deceased Paul Cézanne (1839-1906), who had worked nearby at l'Estaque, Braque's work at La Ciotat can be seen as a pilgrimage to the birthplace of modern outdoor painting.
