Bonnard's paintings with his stylized decorative qualities and bold use of colors, are in recent years regaining critical attention and the exhibition features about 30 works by the artist. One of the paintings Seascape, shows a view of the bay of Cannes with the Esterel Mountains in the background. In this work the use of vivid colors pulls the background to the front, and the top two-thirds of the composition are organized in horizontal strips. "The sea, therefore, becomes the work's true subject," Cros wrote for the introduction of the artwork.

All the important art schools are represented at the exhibition, from Impressionism, to Pointillism, Symbolism, Nabism, Fauvism, Cubism and so on. In the past few years Impressionism masters such as Monet have had multiple exhibitions in the city.
