High Tide at Trouville 1894

"High Tide at Trouville" (1894) by Eugène Boudin depicts a picturesque scene of the French seaside town of Trouville. The painting, created in Boudin's signature plein air style, captures the fleeting light and movement of a cloudy day. The artist's loose brushstrokes convey the texture of the water and the billowing clouds, while the vibrant red sail of a boat adds a splash of color to the otherwise muted palette. This work is characteristic of Boudin's maritime landscapes and his interest in capturing the ephemeral beauty of the natural world.
