  Hydroprotech
JJ Peters, who is a river specialist and has made a series of studies of the Var river.
Peters told us about sedimentation which is the main problem of the Var river Because of the fact that the mountains are very close to the sea, the river has a lot of energy to transport coarse sediment.
For example, since the rivers we saw are not flowing longitudinal, but, due to their meandering movements caused by grind banks, sometimes hit the river bank in an almost right angle so that the bank is eroded very fast.

"Writing of Claude Lorrain, an artist against whom the Hudson River painters measured themselves on their excursions abroad, Roger Fry said, "Claude's view of landscape is false to nature in that it is entirely anthropocentric.
So the Hudson River artist sought out the most dramatic locations - the most stupefying heights and vistas, rendering the American landscape in the idiom of glory and power.
It was his missionary undertaking to bring this terrifying beauty back in the form of engravings or chromolithographs - or to those who could afford them, paintings of an increasing dimension and grandeur - for the exaltation of patriots who saw in the effusions of a prodigal nature the greatness of American destiny.

 Var - Wikipedia
See also: Var (goddess), Var River, volt-amperes reactive (VAR)
Var was formed in 1790 of a part of Lower Provence, but in 1860 it was reduced by the transfer of the district of Grasse to the newly formed département of the Alpes-Maritimes, which is why the Var River does not now flow in the département to which it gives its name.
Var is bounded on the north by the département of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence (the Verdon[?] river forming the boundary), on the east by that of the Alpes-Maritimes, on the south by the Mediterranean Sea, and on the west by the département of the Bouches-du-Rhône.
