Beautiful scene. It makes me wonder if low tide was considered a "dry dock" in some cases. I imagine there would need to be something holding the ship up so it did fall to the side in the mud! Fun to wonder about this basic part of sailing.

Love this one! (Of course, if I'm honest, I pretty much love all of Monet's works.)
ReplyDeleteI love how small the people look next to it as well.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful a gifted painter could capture the helplessness of man.
ReplyDeleteMonet is my favorite artist. I've never seen this picture before. It's a little different from his flowers ones.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that spectacular! I always marvel at how someone could take blops of paint and make it look so realistic. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Debbie. I have no artistic talent whatsoever so I'm always impressed with those who can make something so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
