Update Required To play the media you will need to either update your browser to a recent version or update your Flash plugin.Born in Honfleur, son of a sailor and sailor himself when he was young, the pre-impressionist painter Eugène Boudin (1824-1898) was a great traveler. He sketched the beaches of Normandy and the rocks of Antibes, the Dutch ports or the lagoon of Venice.
Going up the Touques valley, he leaves paintings representing the Touques churches' facades, watercolors of the Pont-L'Évêque herbages, but it is in Fervaques, with his friends Eugène and Stéphanie Jacquette, that he stays the most often from 1869 to 1897. Dr. Eugene Jacquette (1828-1899) was an art collector, from an old Fervaques family.
