Boat Lying at Low Tide by Claude Monet

Boat Lying at Low Tide is an evocative 1881 oil on canvas by Claude Monet, measuring 82 × 60 cm, and held in the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum, Tokyo, Japan. Painted during Monet’s sustained engagement with the coastal landscapes of Normandy, the composition depicts a solitary fishing boat resting on the exposed shore at low tide, its dark hull and upright masts set against a calm expanse of sand, sea, and sky. Through loose, fluid brushwork and carefully modulated colour harmonies, Monet conveys the quiet stillness of the scene while capturing the shifting light and atmosphere of the moment. The work exemplifies the Impressionist preoccupation with fleeting natural conditions and the poetic beauty of everyday maritime life.

A meticulous reproduction capturing the artistic essence of Claude Monets work with vibrant color and subtle texture.
