About MeDufy was influenced by the Fauves painters such as Matisse, to adopt simplified form and bright colours.
In this work he has brought together a light-hearted collection of shells, boats, butterflies and dolphins which are all evocative of summer. The little boats on the surface of the water add to the frivolous atmosphere of summer in the Mediterranean.
