Claude Monet - Pond in Montgeron (1876-1877)


Monet breaks all the rules of painting based on light, shape and color; sets the hues of Nature without asking which real object they belong to. We begin to lose the hegemony of the object; only the sensations that are imprinted on his retina are reproduced.
The brush strokes are as vigorous as only light can be.
A decorative work in terms of size, shape and subject. With a surprise: cherchez la femme!
