This painting is by Jacques Ourtal and the subject is St. Jean De Luz. When I purchased this painting it was very dark and I had it professionally cleaned. The artist has a town named after him in France and it seems as if he was a very interesting character. I would love to be on this beach right now!
I wonder why all the tents are here I would think bathing huts to put on bathing suits and remove
I have seen these tents in lots of other paintings. I think that they just "camped out" there for awhile.
Still in use today, they are rent to provide shelter against burning sun or wind, a quiet place to rest:
