A Fishmarket near Boulogne

A Fishmarket near Boulogne is an 1824 landscape painting by the British artist Richard Parkes Bonington.

[1][2][3] Born in England, he moved with his family to France shortly after the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

The painting, one of his earliest oil on canvas works, shows a fish market somewhere on the French coast.

[4] It has been considered one of the five works that Bonington exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1824 winning him a gold medal.

Today it is in the Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon collection.
