I'll do a little search, but offhand I think that's a Monet.

Yep. La maison du pêcheur, Varengeville (The Fisherman's house at Varengeville), 1882.

Monet, La maison du pêcheur, Varengeville (The Fisherman's house at Varengeville), 1882. Yes. I'm impressed. Thank you so much.
I don't usually see [or think I see] hidden images in things, but i see dozens of human figures [and partial figures or faces] in this painting. Rotating the picture, looking at it from different distances, and especially looking at it in various lighting environments, especially dim lighting, reveals more and more human faces and figures.
