Claude Monet, a pioneer of Impressionism, often painted his family and surroundings at Argenteuil or Vétheuil. This work, believed to feature his wife Camille and possibly their son Jean, captures a private moment within their garden. It perfectly illustrates the Impressionist pursuit of rendering the transient effects of light and atmosphere directly on canvas.
