Refitting of a Ship at Low Tide 1833

Eugène Isabey's 1833 lithograph, *Refitting of a Ship at Low Tide*, depicts a scene of maritime labor and industry. The artist, known for his marine paintings, captures the drama of a ship being repaired on a receding tide, with figures working amidst a haze of smoke and a dramatic sky. This depiction of a commonplace scene highlights Isabey's mastery of capturing the details of everyday life and the picturesque aspects of the natural world. The print is a testament to the enduring appeal of maritime subjects in 19th-century art.
