🎨 Honfleur is considered the birthplace of Impressionism! In the 19th century, artists like Claude Monet, Eugène Boudin, and Johan Jongkind gathered there to paint the changing light over the harbor and the Seine estuary. Their open-air painting sessions in Honfleur’s famous “Vieux Bassin” (Old Harbor) inspired the Impressionist movement that transformed modern art.
