About the piece

Painted in 1890, this work by Eugène Boudin captures a slice of daily life along the Touques River in Normandy. Known for his mastery of 'en plein air' landscapes and luminous skies, Boudin depicts the figures with rhythmic brushstrokes that blend seamlessly into the breezy, atmospheric environment.
