"Pleine Mer. Les Lamaneurs" is an oil painting by the French artist Eugène Boudin, known for his marine landscapes and as one of the forerunners of Impressionism. Created in 1874, this work exemplifies Boudin's fascination with the sea and his dedication to capturing its ever-changing conditions on canvas. The title translates to "High Tide. The Dockers" in English, indicating a scene of maritime labor set against the backdrop of the ocean at its peak tidal state.

The painting measures 54.9 by 89.5 centimeters and is part of a series where Boudin focused on the effects of light and atmosphere on the sea and sky. In "Pleine Mer. Les Lamaneurs," Boudin employs his characteristic loose brushwork and a palette dominated by blues, grays, and earth tones to render the expansive seascape. The composition likely depicts a scene from the Normandy coast, where Boudin spent much of his time studying the interaction between the sky and the sea.

Boudin's interest in everyday life is evident in the inclusion of the dockworkers, or "lamaneurs," who are shown engaged in their laborious task. These figures add a human element to the otherwise tranquil maritime setting, providing a glimpse into the working life of the coastal community. The artist's ability to convey the luminosity of the sky and the movement of water, along with his attention to the social realities of his time, make this painting a significant example of his work and an important contribution to the development of landscape painting in the 19th century.

"Pleine Mer. Les Lamaneurs" is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its technical qualities and its place within the broader context of Boudin's oeuvre and the Impressionist movement. As with many of Boudin's seascapes, this painting is celebrated for its pioneering approach to plein air painting and its influence on the subsequent generation of Impressionist painters, most notably Claude Monet, who once declared that "If I became a painter, it is to Boudin that I owe it."
