More about this artwork

Artist: Eugène BoudinEugène Boudin’s sketch "Provincial Figures" offers a sensitive and intuitive portrayal of rural life through its collection of figures. Created using charcoal, this work displays Boudin's mastery in capturing the essence of daily life with swift, fluid strokes. The drawing features an arrangement of various figures, each depicted in a range of poses that suggest moments of everyday activities—standing, sitting, and interacting subtly with one another.The composition exhibits Boudin’s characteristic attention to the attire of his subjects, reflecting their social and economic statuses and hinting at their individual stories. The figures in the foreground who are sitting show a casual intimacy, potentially during a moment’s rest or social exchange. Meanwhile, the figures standing in the background create a dynamic contrast, adding a layer of depth and narrative to the scene.This piece embodies Boudin's commitment to naturalism and his interest in the lives of ordinary people, making "Provincial Figures" a captivating exploration of human interaction and rural sociability in the 19th century.

Eugène Louis Boudin (12 July 1824 – 8 August 1898) was one of the first French landscape painters to paint outdoors. Boudin was a marine painter, and expert in the rendering of all that goes upon the sea and along its shores. His pastels, summary and economic, garnered the splendid eulogy of Baudelaire; and Corot called him the "King of the skies".
