1833

Dominant colour
Six Marines is a 1833 by Eugène Isabey, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows a rocky coastline with steep cliffs and jagged rocks. A small village clings to the shore, with a few buildings and a church. The sea is choppy, and a lone sailboat drifts in the distance. The sky is dark, almost stormy, while the cliffs glow faintly. The title *Environs de Dieppe* hints this is a real French coastal town. The artist used loose brushstrokes to show light and shadow, making the scene feel dramatic. Look up Romanticism to see how artists used emotion and nature in their work.
Eugène Louis Gabriel Isabey (French pronunciation: ; 22 July 1803 – 25 April 1886) was a French painter, lithographer and watercolorist in the Romantic style.
