Cliffs at Étretat (1885–1886) by Claude Monet

Cliffs at Étretat is an 1885–1886 oil on canvas painting by Claude Monet, owned by Sergei Shchukin until 1918 and now in the Pushkin Museum, in Moscow.

Monet first visited Étretat in winter 1868–1869, when he painted his first Stormy Sea at Étretat (Musee d'Orsay). From 1883 to 1886, he repeatedly visited the town and created a series of around fifty paintings of the coast nearby.[1]
