About the piece
Painted in 1881, Georges Jules Bertrand's 'Grande Marée à Villerville' captures the tumultuous energy of a high tide on the French coast. Through vigorous brushwork and a sophisticated palette of grays, ochres, and whites, Bertrand renders the churning spray of the ocean with an expressive sensibility that feels both timeless and dynamic.
