This is a lithograph by the French artist Marcel Mouly (1918–2008) who was influenced by Cubism and Fauvism. The work features a richly colored abstracted interior with a view of boats on the water. Marcel Mouly was known for his vibrant, energetic and colorful style. He mastered the technique of lithography, producing prints that are considered as significant as his paintings. Mouly's art is often described as being about "beauty and life" and is rooted in the School of Paris. This particular print is even more vivid in person.
