This work is part of a series commissioned by the king to document the major seaports of France, reflecting the country's naval power and commercial prosperity. Vernet, renowned for his marine landscapes, was tasked with this project due to his exceptional ability to capture the interplay of light, water, and atmosphere, which brought his seascapes to life.

The painting depicts the bustling port of Toulon, a significant naval base in the south of France, from the perspective of the Port-Neuf, showcasing the vibrancy and strategic importance of the harbor. In the foreground, Vernet includes a corner of the artillery park, hinting at the military significance of the location. The composition masterfully balances the grandeur of human engineering with the natural beauty of the Mediterranean coastline.

Vernet's attention to detail is evident in the accurate rendering of the ships, the port's architecture, and the activities of the figures populating the scene. His use of light and shadow, combined with a rich color palette, creates a sense of depth and realism that draws the viewer into the painting. "First View of the Port of Toulon" not only serves as a historical record of 18th-century maritime France but also exemplifies the artistic skill that made Vernet a celebrated painter of his time.
