Painted with oil on canvas, this stunning piece measures 45.7x61 cm and is housed in the prestigious Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Renoir's mastery of impressionism is evident in this enchanting scene. As the sun gently sets on the horizon, its warm golden hues cast a painterly glow over the tranquil seascape. The artist skillfully captures the fleeting moments of dusk, creating an atmosphere that exudes serenity and tranquility. In the foreground of the painting stands a tugboat, symbolizing transport and movement amidst nature's beauty. Its presence adds depth to the composition while highlighting human intervention within this idyllic setting.
