Morning on the Seine near Giverny (Matinée sur la Seine près de Giverny) by Claude Monet

Morning on the Seine near Giverny (Matinée sur la Seine près de Giverny), painted by Claude Monet captures a quiet bend of the river where a screen of trees rises from the bank and dissolves into its own mirrored reflection on the glassy water. Working from the floating studio boat he moored near his home at Giverny, Monet rose before dawn to record the drifting veils of mist and warm light that settle over the Seine at first light. The canvas belongs to his celebrated Mornings on the Seine series, in which a single stretch of water becomes a study of atmosphere, reflection, and the softening effects of early morning.

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