"סצנת חוף הריביירה", שצוירה מנקודת תצפית גבוהה במיוחד, מעבירה בצורה חיה את המרחק והרוחב האימתניים של הסצנה מהמוט שבו הציב את כן הציור שלו. מעניין לציין כי פול רפרטי לא כלל ציור זה בספרו וינסטון צ'רצ'יל: ציור בריביירה הצרפתית, מתוך אמונה שייתכן שמדובר בסצנה ממחוז האגמים האיטלקי, שם צייר גם צ'רצ'יל באותה תקופה.

ציורים של צ'רצ'יל יכולים לשמש הצצה למסעותיו הנרחבים ולחייו הצבעוניים. סביר להניח שצ'רצ'יל צייר את "סצנת חוף הריביירה" במהלך חופשה בשאטו דה ל'הורייזון, ביתה של מקסין אליוט, חברה של אמו. אליוט, במקור מרוקלנד, מיין, הייתה שחקנית ואשת חברה מצליחה.

בתוך ציור זה אנו רואים את השפעתם של האימפרסיוניסטים שהשתמשו בנקודות מבט לא שגרתיות, שעוצבו על פי הדפסי עץ יפניים, אך גם עדות לניסיונותיהם למתוח את גבולות ז'אנר הנוף
