| Keywords: Claude Monet - Monet's garden at Vétheuil (1880).jpg Artwork en Monet's garden at Vétheuil Oil on canvas cm 151 5 121 In 1881 Monet launched himself into a painting project around Vétheuil He concentrated primarily on his garden which stretched out in front of his house at a lower level than the road down to the Seine This way he was able to capture on canvas the memory of the places he would soon be leaving These works compete with each other in terms of luminosity Monet suggests the downward slope of the ground using the canvas in vertical format and through the play of shadow and light on the ground which gives the image a feeling of depth and perspective The figures Michel Monet and Jean-Pierre Hoschedé liven up the composition and emphasize the sense of the garden ™s vast size in relation to the human scale But above all Monet brings together his previous experiments in this work the fragmented touches of colour illustrate his mastery of the optical mixing technique and make the vegetation shimmer even more vibrantly Washington National Gallery of Art 1880 Creator Claude Monet object history unknown National Gallery of Art Other versions PD-old-auto 1926 1880 paintings 1880s paintings by Claude Monet Gardens by Claude Monet Oil paintings of children Paintings by Claude Monet in the National Gallery of Art Washington D C Taken with Canon PowerShot S90 Vétheuil by Claude Monet Michel Monet | ||||
