‘Summer Afternoon on Plage du Buse, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin’ captures the golden warmth and gentle rhythm of a summer’s day on one of the Riviera’s most beautiful coves. Painted by British artist John Dyer during his recent return to the Côte d’Azur, the work is informed by his deep connection to this coastline and his years spent living and painting in on the Riviera when he lived in Menton and had a studio at La Mortola in Italy..

The scene unfolds in vivid colour: turquoise sea, soft sand, and sunlit villas framed by palm trees and exotic plants. Figures relax beneath striped parasols while swimmers drift through clear water, creating a composition alive with movement and Mediterranean light. Dyer’s expressive brushwork and luminous palette of cobalt, coral, lemon and jade capture both the tranquillity and vitality of the Riviera at its finest.

An original painting by one of Cornwall’s most celebrated contemporary artists, ‘Summer Afternoon on Plage du Buse, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin’ brings the radiance of the South of France into your home. It is a joyful work that celebrates the colour and rhythm of coastal life and a meaningful addition to any art collection.
