Mill at Limetz
Claude Monet
Oil on canvas (1888)
Over the course of his long career, Claude Monet gradually shifted his attention from urban subjects and focused increasingly on capturing the effects of light on water, whether rivers, the ocean, or his famous water lily pond. Mill at Limetz is a dazzling example of his later style, characterized by dense applications of paint. Here, fleeting reflections on the river’s surface are transformed into a thickly woven tapestry of luminous color.

I’m not a huge fan of Monet (I’ve been overloaded with those water lilies paintings) but I do like this and I really enjoyed the YouTube slide show. Do you know if those were truly all Monets. Seemed like there was a mix of styles in there.

Most were Monet but there’s some that I don’t recognize so I can’t say David.

🙂 When i was getting laser surgery on my eyes, they had a copy of a Monet piece hanging in the recovery room. I said to the nurse, “I think Monet had significant ocular abnormalities later in life!” 🙂

Could be, I think it was suspected that Van Gogh may have had glaucoma. 🙂

I hadn’t seen this one, Maverick. As Monet’s eyesight deteriorated his paintings definitely told the story!
