Cliffs at Étretat is an oil on canvas painting by Claude Monet, signed 1886, owned by Sergei Shchukin until 1918 and now in the Pushkin Museum, in Moscow (inventory Nr. Ж-3308).

The 1996 Catalogue Raisonné of Claude Monet by Daniel Wildenstein references this painting as Fishing Boats Leaving Etretat ( W 1046).

Monet first visited Étretat in winter 1868–1869, when he painted his first Stormy Sea at Étretat ( Musee d'Orsay). From 1883 to 1886, he repeatedly visited the town and created a series of around fifty paintings of the coast nearby. ^[1]
