"The Rocks at Saint-Vaast-la-Hougue" is a depiction of a harbor in the Normandy region of France painted by Eugène Boudin in 1892. Boudin, known for his plein air landscapes, captures the serene atmosphere of a calm harbor with boats gently resting on the water. The sky is a canvas of soft, delicate brushstrokes depicting a light and airy cloudscape. The subtle hues and loose brushwork, characteristic of Boudin's style, give the painting a sense of immediacy and a fleeting moment in time.
