Description
Created in 1879, “The Seine at Vetheuil” is an especially striking painting by Monet. Vetheuil, a town just outside Paris, was Monet’s home during this time, and this is one of his most famous light studies created there. His experimentation with different brushstrokes is evident in the dappled surface of the water, the sweeping horizontal hues in the sky and the blurred landscape in the background. The way that the light reflects off the water is truly stunning, evoking a peaceful and quiet feeling lying outside the hustle and bustle of town. Gazing at Monet’s view of Vetheuil is fascinating, especially when you can see it in person with your own reproduction of “The Seine at Vetheuil.” Order yours from overstockArt to enjoy this masterpiece day after day.
