MONET, Claude: Arm of the Seine near Giverny

🖼 Arm of the Seine near Giverny, 1897
Oil on canvas
Paris, France

Soft lavender and green hues shimmer across water's surface, rendered in loose brushstrokes that dissolve form into light. Monet captures the Seine's fleeting atmospheric effects near his Giverny home, pioneering Impressionism's radical approach to color and perception over representational detail.
