🖼 Entrance of the Grande Rue at Argenteuil in Winter, 1875

Soft snow blankets a quiet street lined with bare trees, rendered in pale blues and muted ochres. Monet captures fleeting winter light and atmospheric conditions, pioneering Impressionism's focus on momentary perception over detailed description.
