[H2]The Painting[/H2]
The painting depicts a sailboat at low tide, docked near a pier or shoreline. The boat appears majestic with its multiple sails, while smaller boats are visible in the background. A person is seen standing on the shore, adding a sense of human presence to the serene environment. The overall atmosphere of the painting exudes peace and tranquility under the cloudy sky.
[H2]Artistic Style[/H2]
Monet's use of Impressionism is evident in this piece, as he captures the fleeting effects of light and color. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, with a focus on capturing the moment rather than creating a highly detailed representation. This style was revolutionary for its time and contributed significantly to the development of modern art.

In 1881, Monet was going through a period of personal turmoil, having lost his wife in 1879 and experiencing conflicts with fellow artist Edgar Degas over the Salon exhibitions. Despite these challenges, he found solace in painting the coastal scenes of Normandy, where he spent time in Fecamp. The bright sunlight and the sea's tranquility seemed to lift his spirits, as evident in this beautiful piece.
