MONET, Claude: Sunset in Venice

🖼 Sunset in Venice, 1908
Oil on canvas
73 × 92 cm
Tokyo, Japan

Golden light dissolves Venice's architecture into shimmering color and reflection, rendered through loose brushwork that prioritizes atmospheric effect over detail. Monet's late series exemplifies Impressionism's evolution toward abstraction, capturing fleeting light as subject rather than mere technique.
