Joseph Vernet (1714-1789) is famous for his landscapes and his marine paintings created in Italy. In 1753, he received a prestigious commission from the director of the Royal Buildings: the depiction of the 22 main ports of France. Vernet completed 15, including that of the Port of Marseilles.In this view over the Phocean City, Vernet slightly exaggerates the number of boats. He depicts several characters on the quayside, including some who are wearing Turkish garments, evoking the trade with the East.In his composition, he grants more space to the port than the sea, in order to better detail, in the foreground, the products and business which resulted from the maritime trade, which was Marseilles
