Camargue riders in Abrivado

This striking painting by Marc Guyot represents an abrivado, emblematic moment of the Camargue festivals where shepherds frame bulls through the streets of the village. We feel all the collective power and vibration of movement, captured by the artist’s expressive brush. The bright colors – ochre, blue, red and white – blend into an explosion of light, transmitting the heat of the South and the dust lifted by the cavalcade. The gestural and dynamic technique of Marc Guyot gives the scene a rare visual and emotional intensity.
