專家說明
This work will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of Henri Edmond Cross being prepared by Patrick Offenstadt.
In April 1893, Cross, who had been living in the South of France for two years, received a letter from his friend Paul Signac: "Since we both know and love this sunny land, why don't we both raise a decorative monument to it?" For Cross, this monument became L’air du soir (fig. 1), which he showed at the third exhibition of the Neo-Impressionist group and the Salon des Indépendants in 1894, before gifting it to Signac.
