Bunny spent the summer of 1908 near Royan, depicting fashionably dressed people strolling on the promenade or entertaining themselves and their children on the beach front. Last fine days, Royan is composed from separate sketches of individual groups, lone figures and boats on the water. It was probably painted back in his studio in Paris, where Bunny shaped the sketches and pencil notes into a view of family and friends, chatting and relaxing in the open air.
