"The Fourth of July by the Sea" is a notable painting by the French artist Henri Edmond Cross, a prominent figure in the Neo-Impressionist movement. Created in 1895, this work exemplifies Cross's mastery of the pointillist technique, a method characterized by the application of small, distinct dots of color that blend together when viewed from a distance. Cross, whose real name was Henri-Edmond Delacroix, adopted his pseudonym to distinguish himself from the famous Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix.

The painting captures a vibrant seaside scene, likely inspired by the Mediterranean coast, where Cross spent much of his later life. The composition is filled with lively figures enjoying the festivities of the Fourth of July, an American holiday, which suggests a celebration of cultural exchange and the artist's fascination with different traditions. The use of bright, contrasting colors and meticulous dotting technique creates a shimmering effect, evoking the dazzling sunlight and festive atmosphere of the day.

Cross's work is often associated with the broader Symbolist movement, which sought to express ideas and emotions through symbolic imagery and color. In "The Fourth of July by the Sea," the artist's use of light and color not only captures the physical beauty of the scene but also conveys a sense of joy and communal celebration. This painting is a testament to Cross's innovative approach to color and form, and his ability to infuse everyday scenes with a sense of wonder and vitality.

Today, "The Fourth of July by the Sea" is celebrated as a significant example of Neo-Impressionism and continues to be studied for its technical brilliance and its contribution to the evolution of modern art. The painting is housed in a prominent art institution, where it remains a favorite among visitors and art historians alike.
