Boats At Rest, At Petit-Gennevilliers

Painted in 1872, Boats At Rest, At Petit-Gennevilliers is a lovely example of Monet’s Impressionistic practice of perception over reality. Blurred brush stokes replace bolder, more linear lines enabling the artist to depict the sense of motion and light. A moving sea of waves and sailboats sit in the background to round out this delightful painting. This elegant work of art will adorn any room of the home.
