Sobre a pintura
The Beach at Sainte-Adresse is an 1867 oil-on-canvas painting by Claude Monet. Its first exhibition was in 1876 with favorable reactions. It entered Jean-Baptiste Faure's, a French singer and art collector, acquired it for his collection. It is now in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago given as part of the Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Larned Coburn Memorial Collection by Annie Swan Coburn in 1933.
This painting and the Regatta at Sainte-Adresse were painted from near-identical locations during the same visit to Monet's aunt. The Beach focuses on the fishermen with a bourgeois couple in the background and Regatta emphasizes attending the regatta.
Nas palavras do museu
In this painting, Claude Monet depicted a moody sky over a beach in Sainte-Adresse, an affluent suburb of Le Havre in northern France. He was familiar with the landscape, having grown up in the area, but the region underwent dramatic change during his lifetime: in particular, the expansion of the country’s rail network turned many rural fishing villages into seaside resorts for tourists. Here, Monet hinted at this transformation, placing a group of local fishermen and their boats in the foreground while drawing the eye to the red details in the outfit of a fashionable woman sitting beside her companion, who idly watches the sailboats through a telescope.
