Six Marines: Environs de Dieppe is a 1833 by Eugène Isabey, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This picture shows a rocky coastline with steep cliffs on the left. A small village with dark, simple buildings clings to the shore. The water is choppy, with a few boats floating near the beach. People are scattered along the shore, some near the water’s edge, others walking along the path. The title says it’s the "Environs de Dieppe," meaning it’s a view near the French town of Dieppe. The brushwork is loose and sketchy, giving the scene a rough, natural feel. If you like this style, check out Romanticism for more paintings like this.
Eugène Louis Gabriel Isabey (French pronunciation: ; 22 July 1803 – 25 April 1886) was a French painter, lithographer and watercolorist in the Romantic style.
