More about this artwork

Oscar-Claude Monet's 1903 masterpiece, "Waterloo Bridge," is a splendid example of Impressionism at its zenith. With a rich tapestry of colors that blend seamlessly on the canvas, Monet captures a foggy morning over the Thames River in London. He renders the iconic Waterloo Bridge somewhat diffusely, emerging out of the mist, which gives the scene an ethereal quality. In the background, industrial structures faintly surface, reflecting Monet's interest in capturing the interplay between nature and human activity.The use of color in "Waterloo Bridge" is particularly noteworthy. Monet employs a palette of soothing blues, purples, and hints of yellow and white to depict the reflective surfaces of the water, the misty ambiance, and the rising sun cutting through the haze. The brushstrokes are loose and swift, creating a sense of dynamism and the fleeting nature of the immediate visual experience.This painting is not just a visual spectacle; it's an emotional journey. It invites viewers to experience the chill of the London fog and the serene quiet of an early morning by the river, all through Monet's eyes.

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.
