Eugène Boudin (1824, Honfleur – 1898, Deauville) Study of the Sky A characteristic study of the sky by Boudin, likely created around 1858–1865, in which he focuses on the atmospheric interplay of clouds, sky, light, and wind. Through lively exchanges with Johan Barthold Jongkind, Gustave Courbet, and Claude Monet in the artists’ colony in Honfleur, he developed a radical and outstanding style of plein air painting, in which he often concentrated exclusively on fleeting moments, such as the movement of clouds. Boudin is considered a pioneer of Impressionism and participated in the first Impressionist exhibition in Paris in 1874, which featured works not only by Monet but also by Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Alfred Sisley, among others. Watercolor and pencil on handmade paper. Right-hand corner and monogram stamp in blue (Lugt 828). Sheet size: 21 cm x 26.9 cm. Framed. Provenance: Artist’s studio (Lugt 828); German private collection; according to tradition, acquired on the French art market and has remained in the family through inheritance ever since. Watercolor and pencil on laid paper. Monogram stamp in blue (Lugt 828).
