Description
In 1873 impressionist Claude Monet painted the Pond with Ducks in Autumn. This landscape was painted to depict a beautiful fall day, with the radiant trees in the background. His use of red and orange tones makes the setting a warm and inviting one. The tiny ducks in the foreground give it a whimsical feeling. The sky is a crisp blue and the slight clouds add the changing of the season. The building is a prominent feature, though no people are shown and it appears to be a natural part of the scene. It creates a beautiful seasonal piece to admire.
