Albert Marquet (1875-1947), this great painter who crossed the boundary between realism and Fauvism, his life trajectory is like his colorful and profound paintings, which left an indelible mark in the history of European art from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. He was born in Bordeaux, France, a city where the aroma of wine and ancient buildings complement each other, where he first felt and loved beauty. When he finally passed away in Paris, the city had witnessed his artistic transformation from immaturity to maturity, as well as his profound influence on later artists.

Marquet's artistic journey was destined to be extraordinary from the beginning. He was deeply influenced by the French naturalist painter Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, who was famous for his keen capture of natural light and profound interpretation of landscape paintings. At the same time, Gustave Courbet's realism also deeply touched Marquet, making him firmly believe that art should directly reflect life and reveal the true face of society. However, Marquet did not stop in the footsteps of these two masters. His artistic vision became broader, especially his love for oriental art, especially Japanese Ukiyo-e, which opened a door to a new world for him.

Although Marquet was later classified as a pioneer of "Fauvism" by some art historians, his artistic practice was far from a simple color experiment or formal innovation. In his works, the free and colorful characteristics of Fauvism are combined with his deep insight into reality and precise depiction to form a unique artistic language. He refused to be limited by any school and insisted on exploring and expressing in his own way. As Henri Matisse said, "He is our Hokusai", which is not only an affirmation of Marquet's artistic achievements, but also a praise for his crossing the boundaries of Eastern and Western art and integrating multiple styles.

Marche's works, whether landscapes, still lifes or figures, reveal an indescribable harmony and tension. With his bold brushstrokes and bright colors, he challenged the mainstream aesthetic concepts of the time, and skillfully combined the changes in light and shadow in nature, the texture of objects and emotional expression. "Spring on the Seine" is such a masterpiece. In the picture, the vitality of spring and the tranquility of the Seine River complement each other. Marche uses his unique color language to convey the warmth and hope of spring to every viewer. In the "Still Life" series, he shows the poetry and beauty of ordinary life through the detailed description of everyday objects, allowing people to feel the extraordinary in the ordinary.
