More about this artwork

Claude Monet, a pioneer of Impressionist painting, captures the serene beauty of Valle Buona near Bordighera in this luminous artwork. Painted in 1884, this piece exemplifies Monet's skill in portraying the effects of light and atmosphere in the landscape.In "Valle Buona, Near Bordighera," Monet illustrates a vibrant, sun-drenched valley. The foreground is filled with an array of brushstrokes in various shades, depicting rocky terrain and sparse vegetation, which leads the viewer's eye towards the lush, green midground dominated by dense foliage.Dominating the scene are the majestic mountains that rise in the background, their forms rendered through nuanced shades of blue and green, shrouded in a soft, hazy light that is characteristic of Monet’s work. The sky above is a display of delicate blues and hints of soft pink and yellow, suggesting a time of day when the light is particularly mellow and reflective.This painting not only showcases Monet's typical Impressionist touches but also reflects his ongoing fascination with the natural world, capturing the unique color and light of the Italian landscape.

Oscar-Claude Monet was a founder of French Impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature. Monet's ambition of documenting the French countryside led him to adopt a method of painting the same scene many times in order to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons. From 1883 Monet lived in Giverny, where he purchased a house and property, and began a vast landscaping project which included lily ponds that would become the subjects of his best-known works. In 1899 he began painting the water lilies, first in vertical views with a Japanese bridge as a central feature, and later in the series of large-scale paintings that was to occupy him continuously for the next 20 years of his life.
