More about this artwork

Oscar-Claude Monet's "Girl with Dog" from 1873 is a vivid illustration of the Impressionist movement that characterizes much of his work. Depicted in this tender scene is a young girl, directly engaging the viewer with her calm, contemplative gaze. Dressed in a long, blue-striped dress with matching bonnet, her fashion reflects the rural, 19th-century French style, lively with texture and dotted patterns that resonate with the period's aesthetics.This artwork captures a serene moment in a lush garden setting. Next to the girl stands her small, alert dog, an addition that adds charm and a sense of companionship to the scene. They are surrounded by greenery; hints of trees and foliage are brushed in Monet's signature loose style, with dabs of color that evoke a feeling of lightness and the transient quality of light.Monet's expert use of light and shadow, along with his soft yet dynamic brush strokes, helps to create a lively yet peaceful atmosphere.

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.
