"The Fourteenth of July at Etretat" is a notable painting by the Swiss/French artist Félix Edouard Vallotton, created in 1901. This work is part of Vallotton's exploration of leisure scenes and landscapes during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The painting captures the celebratory atmosphere of Bastille Day, France's national day, at the coastal town of Étretat in Normandy, known for its striking cliffs and natural arches.

Vallotton, a member of the post-impressionist avant-garde group Les Nabis, was renowned for his bold use of color and pattern, which is evident in this painting. "The Fourteenth of July at Etretat" reflects the artist's transition from woodcuts to the painterly techniques that characterized his later works. The composition features beachgoers enjoying the holiday, with the distinctive cliffs of Étretat serving as a dramatic backdrop. The painting's style is marked by a juxtaposition of flat areas of color with more detailed and dynamic figures, capturing the light and atmosphere of the seaside setting in a manner that is both realistic and stylized.

This artwork is significant for its representation of French culture and leisure at the turn of the century, as well as for its contribution to the development of modernist painting. Vallotton's approach to this scene is reflective of his broader artistic concerns, including the interplay of public and private life, the modern experience of nature, and the social dynamics of contemporary society.

"The Fourteenth of July at Etretat" is held in high regard for its technical execution and its insightful encapsulation of a moment in French life. It remains an important piece within Vallotton's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and cultural implications. The painting is also an exemplar of the synthesis of naturalism and the emerging modernist sensibility that would come to define the art of the early 20th century.
