Fishing Boats, 1836. Eugene Isabey began his career assisting his father, the miniaturist J. B. Isabey, with illustrations for a travel book on Italy.

On his return, he specialized in coastal scenes of Normandy in the north of France.

Fishing Boats
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor and graphite underdrawing with extensive gum heightening on moderately thick, moderately textured wove paper, created by the renowned Romantic watercolorist Eugene Isabey in 1836. Isabey, who began his artistic journey assisting his father, J.B. Isabey, with illustrations for a travel book on Italy, embarked on a trip to England in 1825, where he was deeply influenced by the latest trends in watercolor painting. Upon his return to France, he focused on coastal scenes of Normandy, showcasing his exceptional skill in depicting the atmospheric effects at the intersection of sea, shore, and sky. In this masterpiece, Isabey invites us to a serene fishing village scene, where the gentle lapping of the waves against the shore creates a tranquil ambiance. The fishing boats, with their sails furled, are moored along the sandy beach, their hulls reflecting the vibrant colors of the sky. The background is populated with figures engaged in various fishing activities, adding a sense of liveliness and authenticity to the scene. The atmospheric conditions are expertly rendered, with the sun casting a warm glow over the landscape and the sky displaying a rich palette of oranges, pinks, and blues. This evocative work of art, a testament to Isabey's mastery of watercolor and his ability to capture the essence of a place and time, is a stunning addition to any collection and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Europe during the 19th century.
