Trouville 1879

"Trouville" (1879), by Eugène Boudin, depicts the bustling harbor at Trouville-sur-Mer in Normandy, France. The painting features a collection of ships at anchor, their masts rising into a pale blue sky. The loose brushwork and impressionistic style give the painting a sense of movement and atmosphere, capturing the fleeting nature of light and color on water. Boudin, known as the "Painter of the Sea," frequently captured the lively scenes of seaside life, contributing to the development of Impressionism.
