00:14with the Falvist movement, was known for his vibrant use of color and unique perspectives.

00:25and how his work evolved over time.
00:30In the early 1900s, Albert Marquet, along with artists like Henri Matisse,
00:35embraced Falvism, a movement characterized by bold, expressive colors and simplified forms.
00:42Marquet's work during this period reflects the Falvist spirit,
00:46with landscapes and cityscapes that burst with vibrant hues and emotional intensity.
00:52Unlike some of his Falvist peers, Marquet's style was more subdued,
00:56focusing on atmospheric effects and the play of light.
01:02Often featuring harbors, rivers and coastal scenes stand out for their calm yet vivid
01:08expression of color, making him a distinctive voice within the movement.
01:14As Falvism evolved, so did Marquet's art. He gradually shifted towards a more naturalistic
01:20palette while retaining the movement's emphasis on color and composition.
01:26Marquet's work continued to influence artists long after the Falvist movement had ended,
01:32leaving a lasting legacy in modern art.
