Maurice de Vlaminck

(4 April 1876 – 11 October 1958)

We were fortunate to inherit the poster of the lovely painting by the French fauvist Maurice de Vlaminck and it has been on my wall ever since. It is one of my favourites, particularly because I have a soft spot for boats.


The Seine at Chatou, Oil on Canvas, 1906

Here is where it is located (in red) west of Paris


And here are a few pictures of boats...
