Pourville, near Dieppe (Pourville, près de Dieppe), 1882 by Claude Monet

Pourville, near Dieppe (Pourville, près de Dieppe), painted by Claude Monet in 1882 sweeps along the Normandy shore, where a quiet sandy beach meets pale chalk cliffs glowing rose and gold in the sea air. Shadows stretch across the sand while the calm Channel dissolves into a hazy horizon of silvery blue. Monet spent much of 1882 working at the fishing village of Pourville, and these coastal campaigns produced some of the most atmospheric seascapes of his career.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1882.
