Description: By the 1870s, Eugène Boudin had earned a considerable reputation as a talented artist, exhibiting regularly at the Paris Salon. Paintings like Beach Scene, Trouville, however, prove that no matter where his career took him, Boudin always returned to his native coastal waters and never ceased finding inspiration in the area’s beauty. A year after completing the intimate seaside view, Boudin would participate in the first Impressionist exhibition.
Provenance: Partial gift from Montgomery H. W. Ritchie and Museum Purchase from Cornelia Ritchie
