MONET, Claude: The Thames below Westminster

🖼 The Thames below Westminster, c. 1871
Oil on canvas
47 × 63 cm

Golden light dissolves Westminster's architecture into shimmering reflections across the Thames, rendered in broken brushstrokes that prioritize atmosphere over detail. Monet's series captured industrial London through the Impressionist lens, transforming urban fog and pollution into luminous poetry.
