"Pines by the Sea" is a painting by Henri Edmond Cross, a leading figure in the pointillist movement which developed alongside Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. Cross, whose real name was Henri-Edmond Delacroix, adopted the pseudonym to avoid confusion with the famous Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix. Born on May 20, 1856, in Douai and passing on May 16, 1910, in Saint-Clair, Cross played a pivotal role in the transition from the 19th-century tradition of Neo-Impressionism to the 20th-century's Fauvism.

The painting "Pines by the Sea" exemplifies Cross's mature period when he fully embraced the pointillist technique, characterized by the application of small, distinct dots of color in patterns to form an image. This work is particularly noted for its vibrant color palette and the luminous effect achieved through this meticulous method. The subject matter, a coastal landscape featuring pine trees, is typical of Cross's later works, which often depicted the idyllic surroundings of the Mediterranean coast where he spent his final years.

While the exact date of creation for "Pines by the Sea" is not specified, it is likely to have been produced during the late 19th or early 20th century, a period when Cross was deeply engaged with the landscape of the French Riviera. The painting is a testament to the artist's fascination with the interplay of light and color, and his desire to capture the essence of the natural world through a radical new painting technique.

"Pines by the Sea" is not only significant for its aesthetic qualities but also for its historical context, representing a moment of evolution within the broader narrative of modern art. As with many of Cross's works, this painting would have contributed to the dialogue among avant-garde artists of the time, influencing contemporaries and future generations in their pursuit of new modes of visual expression.

The painting's current location, provenance, and exhibition history are essential for a comprehensive understanding of its impact and legacy. However, if such information is not readily available, it would be pertinent to note the broader collection of Cross's works held in museums and private collections worldwide, which continue to inform and inspire admirers of Neo-Impressionism and early modern art.
