La Manne-Porte, Etretat is a 1890 oil by Claude Monet, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
This painting shows a cliff on the left side, with a hole in it. The cliff is dark and the water in front of it is calm and reflective. The sky above is yellow and cloudy. The cliff and the water are painted with thick brushstrokes, giving the scene a textured look. The yellow sky is lighter at the top and darker towards the bottom, where it meets the cliff. The painting has a peaceful atmosphere, with the calm water and the soft colors of the sky. If you like this painting, you might also want to check out the work of Claude Monet.
