About the piece

Painted in 1881, this work by Claude Monet captures a boat resting on the shore at low tide. The composition is defined by the artist's signature Impressionist technique, with short, rhythmic brushstrokes that bring the shimmering sky and textured beach to life with remarkable energy and light.
