Marquet's delicate brushstrokes and impressionistic style lend a tranquil and intimate atmosphere to the composition. Marquet, a close friend of Henri Matisse, often painted alongside him during their travels. In 1926, they visited Tunisia together, where Marquet found inspiration in the coastal town of La Goulette. This painting reflects the influence of their shared experiences and the Mediterranean environment on his work.

To promote the exhibition, the museum produced a large-scale reproduction of "Fenêtre à la Goulette" in 1970.
