Description
Claude Monet creates light and dark with his incredible mastery of color arrangement in Boat at Low Tide, FeCamp, 1881. It is an exploration of finer detail keeping in line with the Impressionistic techniques favored by Monet and his contemporaries. The strong, slightly bolder lines clearly define the subject, while softer brush strokes in the background defer from realism. The boat is depicted in dark colors, against the bright blue sky and red buildings in the distance, while the men working are only marks against the sandy beach. This painting will bring a warm and endearing feel to any room it hangs.
