Radoub d'une Barque à la Marée Basse (Refitting of a Ship at Low Tide) is a 1833 ink by Eugène Isabey, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting depicts a ship in the process of being refitted at low tide. The vessel is positioned on the shore, with its hull exposed and workers busy around it. In the background, a house and other buildings are visible, set against a rocky cliffside. The scene is rendered in muted tones, with the focus on the activity surrounding the ship. The artist's use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition. To learn more about the Romanticism movement, which this painting is a part of, explore the works of artists like Eugène Isabey.
