Eugène Lepoittevin was a pupil of Louis Hersent (1777-1860) and August-Xavier Leprince (1799-1826), exhibiting regularly at the Paris Salon from 1831 onwards. Lepoittevin travelled and worked in England, France, Italy and The Netherlands, depicting the simple coastal life. In England he may also have met his contemporary fellow artist Richard Parkes Bonnington (1802-1828), whose choice of subjects and compositions are closely comparable. Lepoittevin was best known for his marines, beach- and riverscenes, of which this painting is an important example.
