Pierre Caro (XX) - Scène de pêcheurs / femmes au rivage

Painting – Fishermen scene / women at the shore – Signed P. Caro – Oil on canvas – Framed

Painting depicting a seaside scene: a group of women carrying baskets, walking in shallow water on their way back from fishing. The work is created with a soft and nuanced palette, blending mauve, brown, and bluish tones.
The composition is typical of maritime work scenes from the early to mid-20th century, featuring a pronounced atmospheric treatment, a cloudy sky, and an impressionist rendering of the silhouettes.

The canvas is signed at the bottom right 'P. Caro' and bears a similar inscription on the back of the frame. This type of work is part of the European figurative tradition, close to the realist and post-impressionist schools dedicated to fishing scenes and popular life.

The table is presented in an antique wooden frame, moulded and patinated, consistent with the overall tone of the composition.
