"Pleasure Boats" (French: "Bateaux de Plaisance") is a painting by the renowned French Impressionist artist Claude Oscar Monet. Created in 1874, this work is part of a series of paintings in which Monet explored the effects of light and reflection on water, a theme that would occupy him throughout his career. The painting depicts leisure boats moored on the River Seine at Argenteuil, a suburban town northwest of Paris that became a popular retreat for Parisians and a favored spot for the Impressionist painters.

Measuring 61 x 49.5 cm, "Pleasure Boats" is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allowed Monet to capture the fleeting effects of light with quick, dappled brushstrokes—a hallmark of the Impressionist movement. The composition is notable for its vibrant color palette and the way in which Monet conveys the shimmering reflections of the boats and the sky on the water's surface. The scene is bathed in natural light, with the artist's use of contrasting colors and light suggesting the warmth of a sunny day.

Monet's interest in capturing the modern life of his time is evident in this painting, as leisure activities such as boating were becoming increasingly accessible to the middle class during the late 19th century. The work is also a testament to Monet's fascination with water and his innovative approach to painting en plein air (outdoors), which allowed him to observe and record the changing conditions of the natural world directly onto the canvas.

"Pleasure Boats" is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it continues to be exhibited and admired for its contribution to the development of Impressionism and its depiction of modern life along the Seine. The painting is a significant example of Monet's early work and his lifelong exploration of light, color, and the landscape, themes that would define his artistic legacy.
