Eugène Boudin, Honfleur, paintings and drawings (book) by Anne-Marie Bergeret-Gourbin. Somogy Art Editions. 1998. New in blister. Hardcover book of 192 pages. French version.
When she arrived in Honfleur on October 1, 1976, the Eugène-Boudin museum was still only a sketch with two employees and as many rooms open to the public.
For the young curator, who holds a master’s degree in art history and is a graduate of the Louvre school, the Cité des Peintures is a stopover. But by taking up the challenge of “developing 19th century painting”, requested by Marcel Liabastre, the mayor at the time, Anne-Marie Bergeret-Gourbin launched herself, without yet knowing it, into her life’s work.
After Safi, the large sardine port of Morocco where she was born, Bordeaux then Paris, she also returned to her Norman family roots, facing the estuary and its light, where Eugène Boudin introduced Claude Monet to outdoor painting.
