About the piece
Painted in 1859 by William Samuel Parrott, this oil on canvas captures the lively atmosphere of the port at Le Havre. The composition expertly balances the intricate rigging of sailing vessels with a crowded quay filled with merchants and local figures, all bathed in the luminous, atmospheric light characteristic of the Normandy coast.
