Virtual Gallery - Room 4

The latest artist to get a room in my virtual gallery is Monet. The great impressionist painter, Monet's work is best seen in real life - I never feel prints do full justice to the pictures and the techniques employed. Still, in the absence of the real thing, prints will suffice.

There were many pictures I could have chosen for this gallery but have gone for some of my favourites. Enjoy!




From top to bottom:

• Impression - Sunrise (1872)
• The Houses of Parliament (Effect of Fog) (1903-1904)
• The Studio Boat (1874)
• Haystacks: Snow Effect (1891)
• Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies (1899)
