Terrasse à Sainte-Adresse is a painting by the impressionist painter Claude Monet (莫奈).
Monet spent the summer of 1867 at the resort town of Sainte-Adresse on the English Channel. It was there, in a garden with a view of Honfleur on the horizon, that he painted this picture, which combines smooth, traditionally rendered areas with sparkling passages of rapid, separate brushwork, and spots of pure colour.
The models were probably Monet's father, Adolphe, in the foreground, Monet' cousin Jeanne Marguérite Lecadre at the fence; Dr. Adolphe Lecadre, her father; and perhaps Lecadre's other daughter, Sophie, the woman seated with her back to the viewer.
