From Sotheby’s, London:
L’Embarcadère is one of Monet’s most accomplished and resolved depictions of Zaandam executed during his time in Holland. Imbued with the all the charm of his views of the Seine, the present work’s fashionably dressed figures and sentimental palette display the quintessential qualities of the artist’s Impressionist style.
