Charming oil on canvas signed lower right Louis Billiard, depicting a lively view of Mont Chevalier in Cannes, with in the foreground a Mediterranean garden bathed in light, where a few figures stroll elegantly seated in the shade of palm trees. In the background, we can see the characteristic silhouette of the Suquet tower and the Notre-Dame d'Espérance church, emblems of old Cannes.
The artist sensitively captures the peaceful and luminous atmosphere of the Côte d'Azur, in a balanced composition where southern warmth blends with an impressionist touch.
