Boats on the Beach (Bateaux sur la Plage), 1883 by Claude Monet

Boats on the Beach, painted by Claude Monet in 1883 gathers a cluster of colorful fishing boats, yellow, red, and black hulls beached beside a thatched caloge used for storing gear, their forms mirrored in the still, pale water. Painted during Monet's stay on the Normandy coast, the composition sets aside grand cliffside vistas for an intimate study of working boats at rest, rendered in the loose, luminous brushwork of his mature Impressionist style.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1883.
