Artwork description
Claude Monet · Pourville · 1882 · W733
A small stone cabin dominates the English Channel from the Pourville cliff, almost absorbed by the grass and coastal relief. Signed and dated Claude Monet 82 lower right, this oil on canvas measuring 60 × 71 cm is kept at the Newark Museum of Art under number 49.155 and corresponds to Wildenstein 733.

Look at the work
The building is placed on the upper slope, while a grassy slope descends diagonally towards the water. The coastline and horizon open the composition beyond this steep foreground.
Deaf greens, ochres and browns build the earth; the sea and the sky mix blue, gray and white. The light touches on the cabin are enough to detach it from the landscape.
Modest and almost deserted, the construction nevertheless gives its full scale to the panorama: without it, the cliff would only be an abstract succession of colors.
Composition, touch and light
Three precise elements allow us to understand this composition and the essential difficulties of faithful reproduction.
The slope leads the view from the cabin to the sea. Its inclination directly transmits Monet's elevated position on the cliff.
The roof and walls are simplified but distinct. Monet avoids picturesque detail to maintain priority of light and relief.
W733 belongs to the views of the customs officers' cabin painted in 1882. The pattern changes scale and place depending on the artist's position and the state of the time.
Reference image
Only one exact image of W733 is used. The real WebP measures 433 × 359 px, the best reliable public definition identified for this version, without artificial enlargement.
Enlarging it or specifying it excessively would modify its role as a landmark in the middle of the landscape.
The direction of the brush makes you feel the relief. Too regular flat areas would flatten the cliff.
The water should not become a uniform blue. Its variations reflect the overcast sky and coastal light.
Documented benchmarks
The Customs House is an oil on canvas from 1882, 60 × 71 cm, signed and dated lower right, kept in the Newark Museum of Art under number 49.155 and listed Wildenstein 733.
Monet works on the Normandy coast from different points of view and transforms the cabin into a recurring landmark facing variations in sea and light.
The painting entered the merchant's circuit very early and then joined the museum in 1949 thanks to a donation from Mr. and Mrs. William V. Griffin.
The work is numbered 49.155. Its reference Wildenstein 733 prevents it from being confused with the other cabins painted the same year.

Fidelity here depends on precise relationships between light, touch, depth and color temperature.
