Plage de Villerville, Normandy is a 1875 oil by Charles François Daubigny, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This painting shows a beach scene with a few people scattered around. The beach is sandy, and there are some objects on it that look like they might be fishing nets or other beach gear. In the background, there's a hill with some buildings on it. The sky is a light blue color, and it looks like it might be a sunny day. The overall mood of the painting is pretty calm and peaceful.
