Bateaux sur la plage à Collioure" (Boats on the Beach at Collioure) is a painting by the French artist André Derain, who was an important figure in the Fauvist movement in the early 20th century. The painting depicts a scene of boats on a beach in the town of Collioure in the south of France. 

The Fauvist movement was characterized by the use of bright, bold colors and expressive brushwork, and this painting is a good example of those qualities. The boats and the beach are rendered in vibrant hues of red, blue, and yellow, and the brushstrokes are loose and expressive. The overall effect is one of lively movement and energy, as if the viewer is right there on the beach, looking out at the boats as they come and go.
