Entrance to the Port of Honfleur, Johan Barthold Jongkind

Entrance to the Port of Honfleur

Johan Barthold Jongkind, 1863–64

Johan Barthold Jongkind brought a new spirit to the painting of coastal scenes. Claude Monet claimed that it was Jongkind who “educated his eye,” and his content, palette, and technique played an important part in the development of Impressionism. Though Jongkind painted his final compositions in the studio, the artist strove to retain the freshness of his plein-air (outdoor) sketches.
