Description
The Beach at Sainte-Adresse was painted in oil on canvas by Claude Monet in 1867. Original dimensions: 30 × 40 in. Mr. & Mrs. Lewis Larned Coburn Memorial Collection. in the summer of 1867, Claude Monet stayed with his aunt in Sainte-Adresse, an affluent suburb of the port city of Le Havre in Normandy, where the artist grew up. Monet began the painting outdoors on an overcast day but likely revised the composition in his studio in view of other related canvases, especially the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Regatta at Sainte-Adresse. Technical analysis revealed that what started as a scene of yachts & tourists at the beach ultimately became a view of sailboats & local fishermen. Claude Monet's lush, light-dappled plein-air paintings exemplify the aesthetics of the Impressionist movement, which the artist helped establish in late 1800s France. Monet keenly observed & rendered urban environments, his iconic water lily gardens, haystacks, & other pastoral landscapes. He painted each setting over & over again in order to capture changes in light & ambiance. As he evoked the particularities of the environment, his brushstrokes could veer towards abstraction. Both his mark-making & rich color palettes helped establish a path for 20th-century painting. Monet's work belongs in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Musée de l'Orangerie, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, & many others. in 2019, his painting Mueles (1891) became the most expensive Impressionist artwork ever sold at auction when it notched $110.7 million.
