"Port D'alger" is a notable painting by the French artist Albert Marquet, who was associated with the Fauvist movement. Created in 1944, this work exemplifies Marquet's distinctive style, characterized by its subtle use of color and fluid brushwork. Marquet, who was known for his landscapes and cityscapes, often depicted scenes of harbors and rivers, capturing the interplay of light and water with a remarkable sensitivity.

The painting portrays the bustling port of Algiers, the capital city of Algeria, which was a French colony at the time. Marquet had a deep connection with Algiers, having spent significant periods there, and his familiarity with the locale is evident in the detailed yet impressionistic rendering of the scene. The composition of "Port D'alger" is marked by its balanced arrangement of elements, with the harbor's architecture, ships, and the shimmering water all contributing to a harmonious whole.

Marquet's use of color in "Port D'alger" is particularly noteworthy. Unlike the vivid, sometimes jarring palette of his Fauvist contemporaries, Marquet employed a more restrained and nuanced approach. His colors are soft and muted, creating a tranquil atmosphere that invites the viewer to linger and absorb the scene. The painting's light is diffused, lending a sense of calm and timelessness to the busy port.

"Port D'alger" is a testament to Marquet's ability to capture the essence of a place with economy and grace. His work, while rooted in the Fauvist tradition, also anticipates the more subdued and contemplative approaches of later modernist painters. Today, "Port D'alger" is celebrated not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its historical significance, offering a glimpse into the colonial past of Algiers and the enduring beauty of its maritime landscape.
