La Marée
Original oil Landscape painting: Oil painting on carton monogrammed in the lower right with the initials "SA" for Albert Edmond Sardin (1874-1947).
The scene shows boats stranded on a beach in the low tide, a familiar scene in Normandy and Brittany. The color palette is lovely and muted in this impressionist landscape, embellished by its frame sculpted perfectly in the sand tones that match the beach. La Marée means "the tide" in French.
