Matisse shares Dufy's Fauvist use of vibrant, expressive color and loose brushwork to capture sun drenched coastal leisure scenes along the French Riviera. His beach paintings radiate the same joyful, light filled atmosphere with bold blues and warm sandy tones.

Marquet was a close contemporary of Dufy who painted the Norman coast and French harbors with similarly luminous blues and a relaxed, modern approach to seaside life. His oil paintings share the same bourgeois recreational subject matter and gestural Fauvist handling of light on water.

Sorolla captured sunlit beach scenes with bathers and leisurely coastal atmospheres using vibrant, saturated color and fluid brushwork that closely echoes the mood and palette of this Dufy painting. His signature treatment of shimmering blue water and golden sandy shores creates a very similar visual and emotional experience.
