About the piece

Painted in 1868, this work by Édouard Manet depicts the bustling jetty of Boulogne-sur-Mer. The artist uses a muted, silvery palette to capture the hazy maritime atmosphere, with sailboats appearing as ghostly silhouettes against the sea and sky, showcasing his transition toward Impressionism.
