“Woman with a Parasol was painted outdoors, probably in a single session of several hours’ duration. The artist intended the work to convey the feeling of a casual family outing rather than a formal portrait, and used pose and placement to suggest that his wife and son interrupted their stroll while he captured their likenesses….

Exhibition: French Impressionism from MFA, Boston
“Camille, Monet’s first wife, is shown with a child in the garden of their house in Argenteuil, near Paris, where they lived between 1872 and 1877. The shimmering reds, blues, greens, and white that capture the brilliance of a sun-drenched day are applied with many small brushstrokes, whose varied shapes create the different textures of…

Claude Monet: Iris mauves
“One striking characteristic of Monet’s paintings of the irises in the water garden is his experimentation with unusual and unexpected vantage points. In three canvases from the 1914-1917 sequence, for example, Monet set up his easel on the Japanese bridge in the garden and painted the view looking down on the clumps of irises and…

Henri Le Sidaner: La table, harmonie jaune

Eva Gonzalès: Au bord de la mer
“Eva Gonzalès, a former student of the so-called father of Modernism, Edouard Manet, specialized in the depiction of Parisiennes, fashionable young women engaged in the quiet rituals of domestic life. With Au bord de la mer (Honfleur), Gonzalès also demonstrated her exceptional fluency with the medium of pastel. This fully-conceived composition, executed on canvas, depicts a young woman…

Claude Monet: Sandvika, Norway
“Claude Monet’s trip to Norway in 1895 was perhaps the most physically taxing of all his many painting campaigns. Touring the country with his stepson Jacques Hoschedé, who lived in Christiania (now Oslo), he was awestruck but initially frustrated in his search for good motifs amid the snow. Nevertheless, he painted 29 Norwegian scenes during…

Edouard Vuillard: Two Seamstresses in the Workroom
“The women seen in profile in the painting worked for Vuillard’s mother in her corset and dress-making business. For a few years in the early 1890s Vuillard’s paintings became so highly patterned that they verged on abstraction. It is likely that his day-to-day contact with patterned materials through his mother’s work influenced his very intricate,…

Eva Cassidy: The Water Is Wide
The present work, En Barque sur la Marne, is exemplary in combining most of Lebasque’s influential artistic experiences into one luminous painting. The thick iridescent touches of paint show Lebasque’s understanding of colour and divisionnisme, whilst he uses bright tones to suffuse the scene with a sense of liveliness. An intimate scene of a young…
