"Étretat" is an oil painting by the prominent American landscape painter George Inness (1825–1894). Created in 1875, this artwork reflects Inness's exposure to the Barbizon School and his transition towards Tonalism, a style characterized by soft focus and an emphasis on mood and shadow. The painting depicts the coastal landscape of Étretat, a small village in the Normandy region of France, renowned for its white chalk cliffs and natural arches that have attracted artists for centuries.

Measuring 32 1/8 x 45 1/4 inches (81.6 x 114.9 cm), "Étretat" showcases Inness's mature style, where he employs a more restrained palette and a looser brushwork compared to his earlier works. The painting captures the ethereal quality of light and atmosphere, a hallmark of Inness's later works, and conveys a sense of tranquility and spiritual resonance with nature.

Inness visited Europe several times during his career, and his travels significantly influenced his artistic development. The experience of European landscapes and exposure to contemporary art movements contributed to his evolving style. "Étretat" is a testament to this influence and is considered an important work within Inness's oeuvre for its synthesis of natural beauty and the artist's personal, introspective interpretation of the scene.

Today, "Étretat" is held in a public collection, allowing art enthusiasts and scholars to appreciate Inness's contribution to American landscape painting and his role in the transition from the Hudson River School to the more subjective and expressive Tonalist approach. The painting is not only a visual record of the Normandy coastline but also an embodiment of the artist's philosophical and spiritual musings on nature and the divine.
