Rain at Belle-Île, by Claude Monet captures a windswept Breton moorland dissolving under slanting sheets of rain, a distant windmill and a cluster of whitewashed houses barely visible through the downpour. Monet, the French painter (1840-1926) who helped found Impressionism, painted this quick, weather-driven sketch during a stormy autumn stay on the island of Belle-Île-en-Mer off the coast of Brittany, using loose color and oblique brushwork to seize the fleeting rain effect in a single sitting.
Artist: Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Date: 1886.
