About the piece
Painted in 1887 by Alfred Guillou, this work captures the Arrival of the Pardon of Saint Anne at Concarneau. The composition highlights the serene dignity of the women in their iconic white coiffes as they are rowed ashore, set against a soft, misty coastal horizon dotted with the sails of accompanying vessels. The piece beautifully balances ethnographic detail with a soft, Impressionistic light.
