Cap Martin (Le Cap Martin), c. 1884 by Claude Monet – Clear Blue Edition

Cap Martin (Le Cap Martin), painted by Claude Monet in 1884, captures a rugged Mediterranean promontory where wind-bent pines lean over a rocky shoreline and turquoise waves break against dark stone. Painted during Monet’s stay on the French Riviera in the spring of 1884, the work reflects his fascination with the intense southern light following a visit to the coast with Renoir the previous winter. Vigorous, textured brushstrokes render the tangled foliage and tumbled rocks with an energy distinct from his calmer paintings of the Seine and Normandy coast.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1884.
