Still Life, Tea Service (Le Service à thé), 1872 by Claude Monet

Still Life, Tea Service, painted by Claude Monet in 1872 arranges a porcelain tea set, patterned tray, and loose floral sprays across a draped table, the everyday objects rendered with the same loose, luminous brushwork Monet was applying to his outdoor river scenes that same year. Painted early in his Impressionist career, the canvas shows him testing the style's fresh handling of light and texture on a quiet domestic subject rather than landscape, elevating an ordinary tea service into a study of color and surface.

Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1872.
