S01 E50 – Eugene Louis Boudin – Leaving the Port of Le Havre – 1883
Boudin’s innovative technique of using unblended brushstrokes, showing the reflections of light on the water, and painting from nature influenced impressionist artists like Claude Monet, but his contemporaries often overshadow him.
