Broders encompasses many of his signature elements in this classic Art Deco image; the curve of the bay, stylized people populating the beach, the geometric presentation of the bright, round umbrellas and the angularity of the depicted buildings. This is the French version. The English version reads, "Summer on the French Riviera / Eternal Sunshine." Broders p. 92, Perry / Broders p. 23, Riviera 61, Azur 145.
