About the piece

Painted in 1864 by Eugène Louis Boudin, this oil study depicts a fashionable crowd of vacationers on the northern coast of France. A master of coastal light and a mentor to the young Claude Monet, Boudin captures the shifting drama of the sky, which occupies the majority of the composition and defines the serene, airy mood of the piece.
