Seascape with Sailing Vessel

Eugène Boudin, c. 1875

The image shows a maritime scene with the sea stretching into the distance. The horizon is low in the composition, with a line where the water meets the sky. A ship with multiple sails is to the right, portrayed with broad, impressionistic brushstrokes. The color palette includes grays, blues, and browns. The sea has light strokes to depict gentle waves, and the sky above has soft, wispy strokes of blue and gray.
