"La Manneporte, Marée Haute" is an oil painting by the French impressionist artist Claude Oscar Monet, created during his series of stays in Étretat, Normandy. This work is part of a sequence of paintings in which Monet focused on the natural arches at Étretat, particularly the Manneporte, which is the largest of these structures. The title translates to "The Manneporte, High Tide," and it captures the dramatic effect of the coastal landscape during the high tide.

Monet visited Étretat multiple times, with the most productive periods being in the winters of 1868-1869, 1883, and 1886. During these visits, he was fascinated by the changing light and atmospheric conditions on the Normandy coast, which he sought to capture in his paintings. "La Manneporte, Marée Haute" reflects Monet's impressionist approach, characterized by loose brushwork, vibrant color, and a focus on the effects of light on the natural environment.

The painting depicts the Manneporte, a monumental natural arch, with the sea at high tide swirling around its base. The composition emphasizes the grandeur and transient beauty of the arch, with the sunlight filtering through the mist and reflecting off the water, creating a dynamic interplay of light and color. Monet's treatment of the subject is less about the geological accuracy of the arch and more about the sensory experience of the moment, inviting viewers to engage with the scene on an emotional level.

"La Manneporte, Marée Haute" is considered an important work within Monet's oeuvre, illustrating his ongoing exploration of the themes of nature, light, and perception. It is also a testament to the artist's dedication to painting en plein air, as he often worked outdoors to directly observe and record the fleeting effects of light and weather on the landscape. This painting, along with others from the Étretat series, contributed to Monet's reputation as a leading figure in the Impressionist movement and has been celebrated for its innovative approach to landscape painting.

The painting is held in various collections and has been exhibited in numerous galleries and museums around the world, allowing audiences to experience Monet's unique vision of the Normandy coast. Its influence extends beyond the realm of art, as it captures a moment in time of a natural wonder that continues to inspire and captivate viewers to this day.
