Seascape Le Croisic by Everett Long Caption: Everett stayed at the hotel Fort de L'Océan, in Le Croisic (near Saint-Nazaire, in the Loire-Atlantique), in December 1921. This is one of a number of seascape studies he made there. It looks north across Quiberon Bay and west into the Bay of Biscay. It is both an historic and picturesque fishing-port town but Everett's oil views in the Museum holding are all seaward, most of them probably from the 'cote sauvage' west and south toward Batz sur Mer and the bay of La Baule. This is a low, rocky but shelving coastline as the seas breaking in the paintings suggest.
