"Canal near Brussels" is an 1871 oil on canvas painting by Eugène Boudin, a prominent French artist recognized for his contributions to Impressionism. The painting depicts a canal in Brussels, a city renowned for its intricate network of waterways. The piece captures the beauty of the canal with its tranquil waters reflecting the overcast sky and surrounding buildings. Boudin's signature loose brushstrokes and focus on light and atmosphere, evident in the painting's cloudy sky and shimmering water, are hallmarks of his artistic style.
