"Henri Martin was without contest an Impressionist and one who had the deepest sensitivity, certainly equal to that of Monet, whom he most admired. Their interpretation of nature is certainly, owing to their utmost sensitivity and not through research of a technical process, a poetical evocation hued by a thousand colours which can undoubtedly be called a work of art" Jacques Martin-Ferrières in Henri Martin, Paris, 1967, p. 35



This work will be included in the Henri Martin Catalogue raisonné currently in preparation by Marie-Anne Destrebecq-Martin.
