Eugène Louis Boudin

Eugène Louis Boudin, born in 1824 in Honfleur and died in 1898 in Deauville, was a French landscape painter and a precursor to the Impressionist movement. Renowned for his marine landscapes and beach scenes, Boudin's works such as 'Trouville Beach' and 'The Port of Le Havre' capture the essence of coastal life with remarkable atmospheric effects. His dedication to painting outdoors and capturing the changing light and weather conditions greatly influenced the Impressionists, particularly Claude Monet.
