La Pointe de la Hève, 1864 – Claude Monet Wall Art | Early Impressionist Norman Cliff Canvas Print

Painted in 1864, Claude Monet's La Pointe de la Hève captures the cliff promontory on the Norman coast just outside Sainte-Adresse, near Le Havre, where the young painter spent the formative summers of his early career. La Pointe de la Hève was the subject of one of the very first canvases Monet would have accepted at the Paris Salon, in 1865, making it a work of remarkable biographical significance — the public debut of one of the great careers in nineteenth-century art. A historically significant and atmospherically restrained work for any interior drawn to the origins of French Impressionism.
