🖼 The Church in Vétheuil in Winter, 1879
Oil on canvas

Pale blue-gray tones envelope a snow-covered church, its Gothic spire rising through mist and frost. Monet captures the fleeting effects of winter light on architecture, pioneering Impressionism's focus on atmospheric conditions over realistic detail.
