Eugene Boudin 1855 Le Havre Two Women on Shore Sailboats Poster
Two women on the Le Havre shore watch sailboats pass in Boudin’s 1855 painting.
Description
Two women in long dresses walk the shore at Le Havre while sailboats glide past in this luminous 1855 painting by Eugène Boudin. Light dances on the water in loose, confident brushstrokes that foreshadow Impressionism. The poster-style print frames the scene in black with the artist's name, year and place — a graceful Normandy beach scene full of 19th-century seaside atmosphere.
