Albert Marquet (Bordeaux, 1875 - Paris,1947), a French painter and close friend of Henri Matisse, Marquet is often associated with the Fauves; nevertheless, some critics consider his art closer to that of Édouard Manet and the Impressionists. After 1909, he calmed the chromatic violence of his earliest works, and began using simplified forms and wide brushstrokes; he painted nudes, but most of all fluvial and marine landscapes. Marquet is considered a landscapist who painted scenes of Paris and of the lands he visited. The French painter often incorporated sea or rivers in his artworks, boasting his expert rendering of the silvery quality of light reflecting on water (like in Port de Marseille, 1924).
“Marquet combined a sure grasp of form, a sensitive and skillful exploitation of dramatic effects of light, and a feeling for color that managed to be sober and rich at the same time.” In an article of the New York Times of 1953, Howard Devree describes Albert Marquet in these words.

Albert Marquet
Albert Marquet was born in Bordeaux in 1875. He studied at the School of Decorative Arts in Paris from 1890-1894, where he became friends with Henri Matisse. He continued his studies at the School of Fine Arts in the studio of Gustave Moreau, from 1895-1898. Albert Marquet paints landscapes and post-impressionist nudes that become more and more colourful and simplified; he expresses himself - following the example of Matisse - in pure tones. At the beginning of the century Modern artist Marquet exhibits in the Parisian Salons (the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon d’Automne) and takes part in numerous art events organised abroad (Russia, the United States, etc.). Marquet meets Dufy and Camoin. He is present at the famous ‘Cage aux Fauves’, that makes a scandal at the Salon d’Automne in 1905; at this time he paints canvases with forms surrounded by black, representing portraits, the Normandy beaches or animated scenes. The artist represents the Seine, often views seen from above and creates variations of themes by changing the time of day and using different lighting. His first solo exhibition is organized in 1907 at the Druet Gallery in Paris. At the beginning of the 1910’s, Marquet paints a series of realistic female nudes. He is unfit for military service in 1914. From the 1920’s until the 1940’s, Albert Marquet takes numerous trips to Europe and Africa that are for him, sources of inspiration in his art, a means for the man to see and learn about other cultures. Albert Marquet’s theme of predilection is his landscapes close to the water (the sea, lake, or river), landscapes that he treats using soft tones that are dominantly grey. Albert Marquet, a sensitive man often well-liked for his modesty, died in 1947 in Paris.
