Artwork description
Claude Monet · Pourville · 1882 · W787
At low tide, the Pourville cliff rises on the left above a dark, wet foreshore, under a clear morning light. Signed and dated Claude Monet 82 lower right, this oil on canvas measuring 59 × 71 cm is kept at the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum under number 128 and corresponds to Wildenstein 787.

Look at the work
The upper left wall is cut by the frame, while a second cliff recedes towards the center. Wet sand and rocks occupy the entire foreground and lead to very low seas.
The chalk receives yellow, pink, blue and purple. The foreshore mixes dark green, brown and light reflections; the almost empty sky lets light circulate without spectacular effect.
Morning does not transform the coast into a peaceful setting: it reveals the height of the cliffs and the complexity of the foreshore left by the tide.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.
The wall enters from the left without showing its full top. This framing reinforces its proximity and height.
Puddles, rocks and algae form a network of horizontal touches. They give the sensation of soil still impregnated by the sea.
The provenance of the museum indicates a purchase from Monet in June 1882. The painting therefore quickly entered the circuit of the merchant who supported impressionism.
Reference image
Only one exact image of W787 is used. The real WebP measures 3,000 × 2,540 px, obtained by reducing the high definition museum source without artificial enlargement.
The sky should remain calm and not very detailed. Its role is to make the cliff breathe and balance the dense matter of the foreshore.
Wall is not uniform beige. Cold and warm touches make you feel its hollows, its light and its humidity.
Dark and light accents should remain fragmented. A smoothed surface would remove rocks, puddles and the retreat of the tide.
Documented benchmarks
The Tokyo Fuji Art Museum documents Pourville Seaside and Cliffs in the Morning, oil on canvas from 1882, 59 × 71 cm, signed and dated lower right, inventory 128 and Wildenstein 787.
The museum notice places the work in its collections and distributes its data as well as an image in the public domain.
The painting then passes through the Tooth galleries and several collections before entering the Japanese museum.
She appears notably in exhibitions of 1899, 1908 and 1914, contributing to the dissemination of Monet's Norman landscapes.
