Portrieux is a 1874 oil by Eugène Boudin, a Impressionism work, held at Hungarian National Gallery.
This painting shows a seaside town with a hill in the background. The town is built on the water's edge, with a few buildings and a road running along the shore. In the foreground, there are some boats pulled up on the beach, and people are walking around. The sky is light blue with some clouds. The painting has a calm and peaceful atmosphere, with soft colors and gentle brushstrokes. The artist has captured the play of light on the water and the buildings, creating a sense of depth and texture.
