THE OLD HARBOUR IN MARSEILLE, OIL ON CANVAS, SIGNED AND DATED BY JOSEPH GARIBALDI
The view of the old harbour of Marseille was a daily one for Garibaldi, who had his studio on the quay of the Rive Neuve at number 55. This zone of the harbour was reserved for small warehouses and was the favorite place for painters such as David Dellepiane, René Seyssaud and Alfred Casile at the end of the 19th century, who all rented studios there.
