Clifftop Walk at Pourville
by MONET, Claude, Oil on canvas, 67 x 82 cm
In 1882, Monet stayed for a few months in Normandy, in the small fishing village of Pourville. He painted several canvases in the countryside, the cliffs and the view of the sea above and below them. The figures in the present landscape are probably Marthe and Blanche, the eldest daughters of her second wife, Alice Hosched�, who joined him in Pourville with her children.
