Seascape at Pourville (Marine, Pourville), painted by Claude Monet gives the entire canvas over to the open water of the English Channel, where restless green and turquoise waves churn with white foam beneath a pale sky brushed with pink clouds. There is no shore and no figure, only the sea itself, captured in quick rhythmic strokes that make the surface seem to heave and roll before your eyes. Monet painted the coast at Pourville, a small resort near Dieppe in Normandy, during his intensive campaigns along the Channel cliffs in the early 1880s, and these pure marine studies count among his boldest early experiments.
Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926).
