Landscape, Vétheuil (Paysage, Vétheuil), painted by Claude Monet in 1879 looks across a bend of the Seine toward the village of Vétheuil, its pale houses gathered beneath rolling green hills and a wide sky of drifting clouds. Loose, broken brushwork animates the sunlit fields, the shrubs along the foreground bank, and the shimmering surface of the river. Monet painted the scene during the years he lived at Vétheuil, northwest of Paris, a difficult period in which the surrounding countryside became his constant subject.
Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1879.
