“From nature, Crevel also retains the sky; but it is to draw many studies of clouds, treated as so many variations of shapes and colors. Yellow and gray, they constitute one of the essential elements of the painting of the Coast of the Virgin where Crevel paints the silhouettes of blue trees overlooking the White Sea.
