Cave at Camaret

George Lacombe, with his Symbolist subjects, decorative approach and pictorial technique, embraced the Pont-Aven style during his stays in Brittany. Through the influence of his friend Paul Serusier, he adopted the Pont-Aven School aesthetic and became the Nabi sculpteur, or Sculptor Nabi. In this canvas, curves and spirals of rock decorate the inside of a cave that opens onto a bright green foam-hemmed sea in the background.
