Renaming justified[edit]

Hello bjh21,
Paysage, baie méditerranéenne, vue d'Agay is not the simple French translation of View of Agay.
This is the official name of the work retained by the Musée d'Orsay which holds it https://www.musee-orsay.fr/fr/oeuvres/paysage-baie-mediterraneenne-vue-dagay-70792 .
Even if the title Vue d’Agay is sometimes retained it is the short version sometimes used for convenience (but faulty) in the writings. This designation is confusing with the work of Armand Guillaumin his contemporary.
Finally, it should not occur to anyone in Wikimedia, unless the title is already appeared translated, to translate this title. Clearly The New York Times = Les Nouvelles de New-York?!!!
So it is necessary to rename Paysage, baie méditerranéenne, vue d'Agay. Marquet.
