About the piece

Painted in 1886, this atmospheric seascape by Claude Monet captures the iconic cliffs of Étretat, Normandy, during a rainstorm. The artist uses rapid, rhythmic brushstrokes to depict the diagonal sheets of rain and the churning, foam-flecked waves of the English Channel, showcasing the quintessential Impressionist focus on fleeting weather and light.
