Description: | Signed: yes Description: Boudin was fascinated by the world of the sea, a world he loved and with which he felt at ease. From his earliest years in Honfleur and Le Havre until his last days in Deauville, the busy, ever-changing life of the ports presented him with a subject of infinite variety. Unlike earlier artists he avoided the life of the quayside with the unloading of fish or disembarkation of passengers. Instead, as here, he concentrated on the ships, be they three-masters, steamers, yachts or fishing boats. In this view we see the Bassin Morny where the larger ships were berthed. | Subjects: | marine; place (Deauville) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Boudin, Eugène Louis (French painter, 1824-1898) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8298... | Go to resource |
